Captain underpants is a great book for young adult readers. Although these books have been deemed inappropriate by some I personally have read these books all through elementary school. These are great books if you have children that want a laugh while they read. Most of the books come in black and white. The illustrations while crude, are very funny. This is a great set of books for teachers to add to their classroom. Teachers better be ready for a lot of underwear jokes to start popping up.
This book was one of the first chapter books i have ever read. This book has so much funny humor that it is wonderful for children. I will defiantly read this book to my students because I feel that they would enjoy this book and want to read more just like this book did for me. This is still one of my favorite books and I hope these boks will carry on to the generation of children that I am teaching.
