About the Author

When Dav Pilkey was a kid, he was diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia. Dav was so disruptive in class that his teachers made him sit out in the hallway every day. Luckily, Dav loved to draw and make up stories. He spent his time in the hallway creating his own original comic books -- the very first adventures of Dog Man and Captain Underpants. In the second grade, Dav's teacher ripped up his comics and told him he couldn't spend the rest of his life making silly books. Fortunately, Dav was not a very good listener.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

When Dav Pilkey was a kid, he was diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia. Dav was so disruptive in class that his teachers made him sit out in the hallway every day. Luckily, Dav loved to draw and make up stories. He spent his time in the hallway creating his own original comic books - the very first adventures of Dog Man and Captain Underpants.

In college, Dav met a teacher who encouraged him to illustrate and write. He won a national competition in 1986 and the prize was the publication of his first book, World War Won. He made many other books before being awarded the 1998 California Young Reader Medal for Dog Breath, which was published in 1994, and in 1997 he won the Caldecott Honor for The Paperboy.

The Adventures of Super Diaper Baby, published in 2002, was the first complete graphic novel spin-off from the Captain Underpants series and appeared at #6 on the USA Today bestseller list for all books, both adult and children's, and was also a New York Times bestseller. It was followed by Super Diaper Baby 2: The Invasion of the Potty Snatchers, also a USA Today bestseller. The unconventional style of these graphic novels is intended to encourage uninhibited creativity in kids.

His stories are semi-autobiographical and explore universal themes that celebrate friendship, tolerance, and the triumph of the good-hearted.

Dav loves to kayak in the Pacific Northwest with his wife.

MY DAUGHTER LOVES READING THIS BOOK!
My daughter is 7 and she can’t stop reading this book. She loves reading it, with all of the exclamations as well the funny comedic context that she finds hilarious. She is constantly reading 📖 certain parts to her Dad and I. There are also plenty of new words that she learns through reading the “Dog Man” books. There are more and I definitely will be buying all of them. She can’t get enough and enjoys reading it. She loves the cute, funny pictures too. There’s also step-by-step drawing instructions at the end of the book that shows you how to draw the characters in the book. She’s excited about that as well. It’s definitely a cool little addition the book has to offer. I definitely recommend these books for parents who are trying to get their kids into reading. Your kids will want to read this. It’s like a comic book in a sense, with cute pictures and funny writing.

    Reviewed in Canada on February 2, 2023
    This is one of the first books that I've ever red! I'm 13 and I have Dyslexia and it makes it hard to read stuff some times. But this book was great for that, for me it wasn't that hard to read! This is one of the books that got me into reading. And now 5 years later I'm starting to write my own books!

    Now I would like to point out that there are a lot of parents that are angry 😠 about the potty humor. But I would like to say Dave was just trying to be funny, and I support him!

    I mean he could have went a bit better on the language since it's a kid's book! But in total it's a great book! Witch is why I gave it 5 stars!
