Fart-Tastic and EXTRA CRUNCHY!!
No, I am not talking about the White Castle burgers you left in the hot sun on your dashboard for two days and then decided to eat. I am actually talking about children's literature, as advertised, VERBATIM, on Scholastic's website. I feel like I'm copping out on this one. But seriously, I was unaware that Captain Underpants was actually intended for children, or that it had become something a respectable place like Scholastic would want to associate with. Let me give you a few little excerpts:
"Just when George and Harold thought they were safe - here come the robo-boogers!"
"the Bionic Booger Boy comes to sticky, snotty, really bad-tempered life..."
They even come out and admit it!
"it's packed full of violence, toilets and completely inappropriate humour..."
You know where I take heart in this whole thing? It's actually on the British version of Scholastic's website: Nuf said? I think so.
