My son has been reading this series from the beginning and even though he is beyond this reading level he loves these books just as much as he ever did! I like to let him read things just of the fun of it and he sure thought this book was fun with a capital "F". He wanted to read the book out loud to me so I was able to get the full effects of the "nasty nostril nugget" theme. I hadn't heard him laugh out loud so much, in a long long time. It was very nice to see. The book is set up like the others in that George and Harold write cartoons through out and my son just loves the cartoons. The main characters were all included although some of them were a bit different than in prior books. Some of them also had more or less involvement in this book. I think this book was very heavy on the whole nostil nugget/mucus/gross out theme. At times it was a bit much for me but for him and it was total and complete enjoyment. He was roaring with laughter the entire time. There are so many books that are hard or painful for him to read in school. So many books he is required to read that are either a challenge or quite sad. I think it's important that he read books like this to remember the simple joy of reading and this book, for him, was joy. |

We had a great time reading Dav's new book. No other kids book author makes my kids laugh so often. I'm sure we'll be hearing from humor-challenged people about the booger and related jokes. I can't wait to chuckle at the "shame on Scholastic" and "this is SO inappropriate" blah blah blah fest. Say what you want-Dav's books are the only books my kids will pass on TV and video games to read. Thanks for all the belly laughs laughs Dav! |

This was actually one of the first Captain Underpants books I have gotten for my seven year old. He read over half of the book before we got home from the store and read the rest of it before bedtime! We have never had to fight him to read but to turn off the game system and television yes. This one was a hands down all out best buy! My son Ethan has never laughed out loud and frequently when reading books, until this one. He has been begging me for more books in the series! I am so happy I gave in to the whole "booger" theme and let him read them... after all body functions and boogers are the fun in a seven year old boy's life around here!!! |

This about the school brainiac (Melvin) turning himself into a bionic booger boy. Now see what happened was he tried fusing himself with his bionic robot by using his new invention. But right before the invention was about to do its thing, Melvin sneezed at the last second. So the invention fused the robot, Melvin, and the snot that came out his nose. In the first book, this used to be about two kids named George and Harold who made an underwear hero out of their principal by using something called the 3-D hypo ring so remember everything I just said. |

This is the book that got my 7 year-old son to love reading. What more could you ask for? It was a great reading experience for both of us to share. We took turns reading out loud together, and thoroughly enjoyed laughing at all the silly adventures of the characters. I think part of the charm of this book (to boys) is the language-words like "booger" and "poopie" are hilarious when you're 7. The Captain Underpants series of books is great because it lets boys be boys while they learn that reading can be fun. |

First, specifically regarding The Night of the Nasty Nostril Nuggets: Our whole family loves Captain Underpants stories, and we were afraid no more were being written, so it was great to discover the Big, Bad Battle of the Bionic Booger Boy, and realize we'd get to read a part 2 later on. This book tells a typically outrageous story of the boys' good intentions gone awry, when a silly nerdy character named Melvin (hey, not disparaging nerds, been called one often) accidentally turns himself into a pretty icky monster, and the usual twists and turns occur, leading to a cliffhanger that is resolved in Part 2, The Revenge of the Ridiculous Robo-Boogers. The whole Captain Underpants series is wonderful. I was happy to discover it a couple of years ago, as my son was a very good reader, but completely uninterested in books. This series changed that completely. And I appreciate the gentle pokes at sexist principals, well-meaning but myopic school librarians and slightly suspicious cafeteria ladies; just a few of the personal memories that led me to homeschool my own children. George and Harold get into all kinds of trouble, but they really are kind of warm and sweet, especially as you get to know them throughout the whole series. Anyone who sees these funny, well-thought-out books as negative or subversive is really not getting the message at all. |

This book even shows you how to get ketchup in your brother's pants, even if you're next door! Dav Pilkey in my opinion is the funniest man alive. But I warn you this book has a tendency to make people stay up all night and giggle so loud they usually get grounded. Even after that they still howl like Hynieas! I lent this book to my next door neighbor. That night, I swear, my house shook. After that night I never saw my next door neighbor outside again. But I still see him looking out the window, hammering the window and laughing! This book should be the world's record funniest book ever! Buy it now, it’s guaranteed to keep you laughing through ANY detention! |

I just bought this for my son today. The title was especially appealing to him (I think if you just say "booger" it'll crack him up). I sent him in for his required 20 minutes of reading time, and I had to check on him a couple of times to make sure he was actually reading he was laughing so hard. He continued to read after his time was up, until he finished the book. I think that says it all... he enjoyed it so much that he wanted to finish it. Highly recommended. |
