As long as I have been a Literacy Specialist, I have been familiar with the popular children’s book series Captain Underpants, by Dav Pilkey. These books have always been a staple in my classroom library and have enticed avid and reluctant readers alike over the years that I have been an educator. My middle school students love to read all about the antics of Captain Underpants and heroes George and Harold.
In their latest adventure titled, Captain Underpants and the Revolting Revenge of the Radioactive Robo-Boxers, we are forced to consider a world without UNDERPANTS! When we last saw our heroes, George and Harold, they had been turned into evil zombie nerds doomed to roam a devastated, post-apocalyptic planet for all eternity.
But why, you might ask, didn’t the amazing Captain Underpants save the boys from this frightening fate? Because Tippy Tinkletrousers and his time-traveling hijinks prevented George and Harold from creating Captain Underpants in the first place! Now, having changed the course of human history forever, they’ll have to figure out a way to CHANGE IT BACK.
Fans of the Captain can now get ready to experience all of the action, thrills, and “laffs” that they have come to know and love in the Captain Underpants Books with The Adventures of Captain Underpants App, available on iTunes! They can now experience the book like never before and even enjoy it in FULL COLOR!
There is even a great resource for parents and educators in the Grownups Guide which can be accessed online and includes a variety of activities for adults to engage young readers of Captain Underpants in!

My daughter loves Captain Underpants. This is such a good, funny book, I highly recommend it for kids. I would say ages 8 & up would really enjoy this.
I am all about literacy and reading and will support anyone or thing that accomplishes this goal! If Captain Underpants gets those kids engaged in a book–the Captain Underpants I salute you!
