Brief description:
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 the second grade, Dav's teacher ripped up his comics and told him he couldn't spend the rest of his life making silly books.
Fortunately, Dav was not a very good listener.
Review Quotes:
"The laughs here (and there are many) are definitely spot-on for the intended audience... There's no question that kids will love it." -- School Library Journal
"A fine example of postmodern, story-within-a-story narrative structure that will please kids, who won't care as much about postmodernism as they do about funny... monsters." -- Booklist
