Captain Underpants installments were the books to buy at the school book fairs.

How are you going to shit on the series. It's a children's book intended to appeal to children. Treat it as such and it's great.

I'm glad I remember the whole situation so vividly, he failed to read the book he said he would because it was he was reading it on a knockoff MP3 player with a tiny screen. Maybe 10 or so words displayed at once. When he actually did the presentation he acted out spawning on a beach in Minecraft and being confused about a block world and having to punch trees. Shit was surreal.
