Last summer, I provided a public service announcement about THE ADVENTURES OF OOK AND GLUK
.This summer, I'm here to tell you (teachers, librarians, parents and grandparents) not to fear Super Diaper Baby 2. Yes, it is chock-full of potty humor, but it also comes with a pretty hysterical parody of HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS. And the plot does turn on the water cycle. (Or maybe that should be -- is a twisted version of the water cycle...twisted, because it does have to do with pee after all...)
Yup. As low as low brow gets. But my 4th graders will love it.
I've worked with so many struggling readers who are captivated by Dav Pilkey's writing and humor. I can't wait to get my hands on his newest!
