Books by Dav Pilkey

Dav Pilkey has done more for reluctant readers than perhaps any living author. Captain Underpants and Dog Man are built on the understanding that the first job of a book is to make a child want to pick it up, and the second job is to make them want to pick up another one. His books are funny, visually inventive, and carry a quiet message about creativity and kindness that lands precisely because it never announces itself.
