Summary: Encourages kids to read!
Comment: What a wonderful, silly book! Dave Pilkey is an inspirational children's author, who struggled in school, spending a great deal of time in the hallway for disrupting his class. He never received any encouragement until he went to college and wrote his first book.
Super Diaper Baby is in comic book style with some great 'flip-o-matic" pages, that you flip quickly and get that live action cartoon effect. The story is very amusing, with some hitting (newborn hits doctor back after being given the slap of life!) and an e-vil arch rival, who turns himself into, well, into something found in a baby's dirty diaper, so consider yourself warned!
Still, this would be an excellent choice to encourage kids who dislike reading to get with the program! Funny, easy to read, but still challanging in areas, with enough gross-out kid humor to satisfy any kid!

Summary: Unacceptable Humour? Not in this book..........
Comment: Super Daiper baby, while it is a great book, many have said that its humor is "inappropriate" . One reveiwer stated that scene where super diaper baby is born was inappropriate. This is an outrage! It is the natural birth of the human child! Do you not want childern to know where they come from. The mother is sheilded by a blanket and if anything it teaches childern more about how theyt were born and where they came from. When the evil guy accidently gets turned into a giant piece of poop, whats the big deal. Kids see it every day when they use the restroom! They find it funny and enourages reading, which is far more imprtant then stopping kid from seeing a peice of poop. The use of the word (that begins with a t and sounds like bird), while i agrree is inappropriate, is nothing compared to what kids hear every day. throughout my years as a fourth grader several years ago, i unwillingly heard wrods much worse then that sveral times a day, as people sitting nearby me and my freinds would say many bad things. I just dont see the point of stopping a child from reading such a wonderfuol and humorus book just because it has stuff he/she hears/sees every day. It encourages reading which can mean a happy life or a bad one. So plaese, get you kid this book. It gives him a gift-the ability to read (a small part of it anyway).

Summary: Fun, enjoyable. Not educational.
Comment: Another fun book for me and my 7 year old to read together, like Dav Pilkey's other books. I buy these books that my son will read, and reread for pure fun. This book is well described above but, to emphasize, the intentional mis-spelled words and phrases are annoying and detracting. Not that poop jokes can be intellectual, but the benefits from "reading" for these young readers are countered by the grammatical and spelling "dumbing down" . I would hope the author tones it down on this aspect in the sequels, but keep writing with godspeed.
