\ From Barnes & NobleThe Barnes & Noble Review\ Dav Pilkey's caped crusader, Captain Underpants, is fighting the grossest and greenest villain yet in the first of a two-part set that's sure to turn your stomach -- and keep you laughing the whole time. \ With Pilkey's patented Flip-O-Ramas and loads of phlegmy humor, The Night of the Nasty Nostril Nuggets follows the rise and fall of the Bionic Booger Boy (until Part 2, that is), from his meager beginnings as snot-nosed Melvin Sneedly to the mucus monster that goes on a serious rampage. The tale begins when Melvin creates the Combine-O-Tron 2000, a machine that melds living beings with robots. But when the geeky inventor sets out to make himself into the most powerful boy ever, a snotty mishap turns him instead into a "greenish, glistening behemoth." Things at school are mostly hunky-dory at first -- aside from the snot on the drinking fountains -- until cold and flu season begins. The Bionic Booger Boy's contact with tissues causes a nasty reaction, but thankfully, Captain Underpants and a little help from an unlikely character put the mutant boy back to normal -- well, almost.\ Pilkey's "sixth epic novel," this delightfully disgusting C.U. episode will have you rolling in the aisles. "Squishy action! Smooshy horror! Gooey laffs!" are just the ticket for any kid looking for a gut-busting pick-me-up, and what parent wouldn't want their child to read about a brave hero fighting the forces of boogerdom? A "pick" of the lists that can't be missed. Matt Warner\ \ \ \ \ \ From the PublisherHorn Book Guide\ (April 1, 2004; 0-439-37609-2)\ A mishap involving a new-fangled machine and an ill-timed sneeze turn nerdy Melvin Sneedly into the gunky, slimy "Bionic Booger Boy." In the second volume, Melvin and Mr. Krupp (a.k.a. Captain Underpants) find themselves trapped in each other’s bodies. Those who enjoy gross-out humor (i.e., most boys) will probably be laughing too hard to notice the deficiencies in the rather shapeless plots.

All rights reserved.\ School Library Journal\ (January 1, 2004; 0-439-37609-2)\ Gr 2-4-Fourth-graders George and Harold are good at pranks involving ketchup on toilet seats; saving the planet from the "nasty forces of unrelenting evil"; and making fun of Melvin Sneedly, the school brainiac and tattletale. When his robot-making hobby backfires during a class demonstration, Melvin tries to transform himself into a bionic superboy to get back at the pair but ends up as Bionic Booger Boy instead. Chaos ensues after he accidentally doubles and triples in size. George and Harold call on Captain Underpants (the school principal), but he loses his powers when he is covered in saliva. When a bionic hamster hears the terrified cries of his two friends, he comes to the rescue. The typical Pilkey ending leaves the door open for a sequel, and the novel is filled with the familiar comic-book inserts, Flip-O-Rama animations, and black-and-white cartoon illustrations. Fans will love this installment, and the book would probably appeal to slow readers. Adults are likely to be turned off by the use of the words "idiot" and "dumb" to refer to children and by the graphic description of snot.

Can Captain Underpants save the day? Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.\ \ \ \ \ Children's LiteratureResourceful fourth-graders George and Harold use their wit once again in this, the sixth Captain Underpants comic novel. Captain Underpants is the hero inside of Mr. Krupp, the strict school principal who was once hypnotized to believe he was the Captain-and continues to revert to the silly savior whenever he hears fingers snap. In this particularly slimy story, one of George and Harold's nerdy classmates, Melvin, accidentally turns himself into a bionic booger boy-part robot, part boy, but mostly mucus. Black-and-white drawings show the plot develop on every page, with two bonus Flip-O-Rama(tm) sections that turn inanimate pictures into almost live-action scenes. These sections make parts one and two of "The Incredibly Graphic Violence Chapter," although parents can rest assured that "graphic violence" is but a sarcastic overstatement. Humor is actually the main tone, although grossness ranks up there as well. Even George addresses the narrator as the disgusting descriptions of the booger boy become grosser than gross.
