Book review for kids, by kids-Captain Underpants

July 31, 2017

For those of you who are looking for new books appropriate for middle grade that both boys and girls might enjoy, this is the place to look!

Every month, a new book (or two) will be added for review right here and they will be reviewed by the best critics, KIDS! That’s right, the one’s who read them will be the judge!

This blog is written by my smart and witty nephew, Alexander. He’s one of the best closers I’ve met and has an infectious laugh. He’s currently learning about contraction words and he loves to watch movies in his pajamas with a cup of hot chocolate, some of my favoritist things too!

 First, for those just tuning in, may I introduce Lex.

“Hi readers. I am almost 11 years old, I’m going into middle school (yikes!), I love Vietnamese food, I want to be a famous actor or you-tube star, I like pretty much everything that is from Japan (Legend of Zelda, Totoro, Japanese animation shows and movies, and lots of other things), and like listening to music on my I-phone. I also love going on vacations (especially to see Aunt Colleen and grandma) and staying in nice hotels!”

And now, introducing our 23rd middle grade

 2nd Book Review of Captain Underpants and the Attack of the Talking Toilets

                                                                  By Dav Pilkey

Book Setting:

The story takes place in George’s house, Harold’s house, the school where they attend and George’s tree house. George and Harold are best friends and do everything together but the school principle threatens their friendship and they can’t let that happen.

Main Characters:

Harold- he has yellow hair and wears a striped shirt. He is a really good artist.

George Beard- he has black hair and wears a tie. He is really great at writing and telling stories.

Mr. Krupp- he is the school principle and is very strict.

Plot:

George Beard and Harold are best friends and love to pull off very big, funny pranks. They also love to create funny comic books and work well together. The principal Mr. Krupp however, hates their comics and pranks. George and Harold get in trouble and surprisingly hypnotizes Mr. Krupp into their made up comic book super hero, Captain Underpants.

This is where their crazy adventures take place of trying to keep Mr. Krupp out of danger while also protecting themselves from getting in trouble. Along the way, they learn some important lessons.

My review:

I’m not gonna lie. I didn’t think to pick up this book until I saw the movie just recently over the summer. I thought the movie was really funny so I borrowed my brother’s copy of the book and turned to page one and started reading. I really liked the book and the story was pretty similar to the movie. I think the characters are relatable and likeable. Harold and George are best friends and just like them, my brother and I work on comic books too (but my brother is a much better artist than I am so he’s more like Harold). I give this book 5 out of 5 stars because it was funny and imaginative. I recommend this book to anyone who likes potty jokes and comics. Even my little sister who is 2  years old really liked it and giggled a lot so it’s good for younger children too.

  Here’s a list of books and links to the other books we’ve reviewed:

The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan                  

Midnight for Charlie Bone by Jenny Nimmo
