About This Book

Tippy Tinkletrousers is back in the ninth book in this #1 New York Times bestselling series by Dav Pilkey, the author and illustrator of Dog Man! George and Harold are behind bars for a crime they didn't commit! But just as they are settling into their new life, they are pulled from prison by a time-traveling tyrant named Tippy Tinkletrousers! Now the boys are taking a trip back in time to the carefree days of kindergarten, when the scariest thing they had to face was not evil mad scientists or

Our Review

This latest installment in the wildly popular series finds George and Harold unjustly imprisoned, only to be yanked from their cell by the time-traveling troublemaker Tippy Tinkletrousers. The boys are whisked away on a chaotic adventure that lands them back in the seemingly simple world of kindergarten, a stark contrast to their usual battles against evil mad scientists. Dav Pilkey’s signature blend of high-stakes, ridiculous humor is in full force, promising another laugh-out-loud chapter book for young readers.

Pilkey masterfully taps into the universal childhood fantasy of revisiting younger days, creating a relatable anchor amidst the zany, over-the-top plot. The graphic novel hybrid format, filled with flip-o-ramas and comic-style illustrations, is perfectly tailored for developing readers, making this a top pick for reluctant readers and Captain Underpants superfans alike. It’s a whirlwind of time-travel shenanigans that champions friendship and creativity with every page turn.
