In this ninth installment of the wildly popular Captain Underpants series, George and Harold's time-traveling antics land them back in kindergarten. Here, they must contend with childhood bullies and the return of the notorious villain, Tippy Tinkletrousers (formerly Professor Poopypants). The book maintains Dav Pilkey's signature blend of irreverent humor, slapstick comedy, and comic-book style illustrations, including the famous Flip-O-Rama pages. Parents should be aware of the series' characteristic toilet humor and themes of challenging authority, which are often cited in its controversies, but also its strong appeal to reluctant readers and its underlying messages of friendship and creativity. It's a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud adventure perfect for elementary school children.
Having changed the course of human history after unwittingly wondering what could be worse than going to prison, George and Harold are shot through time back to kindergarten, where they are subjected to bullying and a clueless school principal.
