Description
About the Book When elementary school pranksters make 3-D photocopies of their comic book, talking toilets come to life and threaten to devour everyone. Book Synopsis Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the classroom... Captain Underpants returns in Spanish! He's big, he's bulky, and he's badder that ever! Get ready for the amazing Captain Underpants. ¡Otro libro divertidísimo del Capitán Calzoncillos! Jorge y Berto están nuevamente metidos en un lío. Primero, destrozan la convención de ciencias de la escuela con sus bromitas. Luego, por accidente, crean una armada de malvados inodoros parlantes que tratan de conquistar el mundo. ¿Quién podrá detener a las diabólicas tazas carnívoras? ¡Esto parece una misión a la medida del Capitán Calzoncillos! About the Author When Dav Pilkey was a kid, he was diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia. Dav was so disruptive in class that his teachers made him sit out in the hallway every day. Luckily, Dav loved to draw and make up stories. He spent his time in the hallway creating his own original comic books -- the very first adventures of Dog Man and Captain Underpants. In college, Dav met a teacher who encouraged him to illustrate and write. He won a national competition in 1986 and the prize was the publication of his first book, World War Won . He made many other books before being awarded the 1998 California Young Reader Medal for Dog Breath , which was published in 1994, and in 1997 he won the Caldecott Honor for The Paperboy . The Adventures of Super Diaper Baby , published in 2002, was the first complete graphic novel spin-off from the Captain Underpants series and appeared at #6 on the USA Today bestseller list for all books, both adult and children's, and was also a New York Times bestseller. It was followed by The Adventures of Ook and Gluk: Kung Fu Cavemen from the Future and Super Diaper Baby 2: The Invasion of the Potty Snatchers , both USA Today bestsellers. The unconventional style of these graphic novels is intended to encourage uninhibited creativity in kids. His stories are semi-autobiographical and explore universal themes that celebrate friendship, empathy, and the triumph of the good-hearted. Dav loves to kayak in the Pacific Northwest with his wife.
