The pages are p. 1-143 it have forward and ch. 1-24. I like this good book and it an epic novel by Dav Pilkey. If you want to check out this book go to the library and pick it up.
This is George Beard and Harold Hutchins. George is the kid on the left with the tie and the flat-top. Harold is the one on the right with the T-shirt and the bad haircut. Remember that now. Depending on who you asked, you'd probably hear a lot of different things about George and Harold. Their teacher, Ms. Ribble, might say that George and Harold were disruptive and behaviorally challenged. Their gym teacher, Mr. Meaner, might add that they were in serious need of a major attitude adjustment. But if you asked their parents, they'd probably tell you that George and Harold were smart and sweet, and very good-hearted...even if they were a bit silly at times.
I'd have to agree with their parents. But even so, their silliness did get them into a lot of trouble, sometimes. In fact, it once got them into so much trouble, they accidentally almost destroyed the whole planet with an army of evil, vicious talking toilets! In chapter two said One fine morning at Jerome Horwitz Elementary School, George and Harold had just gotten out of their fourth-grade remedial gym class when they saw a big sign in the hallway. It was an announcement of the Second Annual Invention Convention. George and Harold had found memories of last year's Invention Convention, but this year's convention was a bit different. The first-prize winner got to be "Principal for the Day." Just then, George and Harold's principal, Mr. Krupp, showed up.
Long story short they got principal for the day. The author biography said "When Dav Pilkey was a kid, his teachers thought he was disruptive, "behaviorally challenged," and in serious need of a major attitude adjustment. When he wasn't writting sentences in the detention room, he could usually be found sitting at his private desk out in the hallway. There he spent his time writing and drawing his own original comic books about a superhero named Captain Underpants. It was always Dav's dream to publish a book about Captain Underpants. Now that dream has come true ...twice! He is the popular author-illustrator of the mega-bestselling The Adventures of Captain Underpants, which has more than 800,000 copies in print. As well, it was an IRA-CBC Children's Choice, an American Bookseller Pick of the Lists, and a Publishers Weekly "Cuffie" Award winner for the Funniest Book of the Year. Mr. Pilkey is the creator of The Hallo-Wiener, a School Library Journal Best Book of the Year, and The Paperboy, a Caldecott Honnor Book. He also illustrated the award-winning Dumb Bunnies books, which are now featured on Saturday morning TV. Mr. Pilkey lives with his dog in Oregon." In book 2 in February 1999.
