  • Playing with Words Dav Pilkey's Literary Success in Humorous
    Playing with Words Dav Pilkey’s Literary Success in Humorous Language • Evangeline E. Nwokah, Vanessa Hernandez, Erin Miller, and Ariana Garza Language play is a key component of many children’s popular graphic novels. The authors analyze the sound and word play in Dav Pilkey’s illustrated Cap- tain Underpants series. They argue that Pilkey’s literary devices fall into two main areas of hyperbole and linguistic creativity and that Pilkey’s language shifts the reader into a carnivalesque play frame. In Pilkey’s work, the use of language contributes to a humorous disconnect between a real word and its distorted counterpart and between real worlds and a parallel sphere of hyperbolic pretend play. Key words: language play, literary devices, graphic novels, Captain Underpants, Dav Pilkey Critics seldom address language play in literature for American chil- dren, especially junior fiction for seven- to eleven-year-olds. But such linguistic manipulation adds humor to the literature that often engages reluctant readers, especially boys. Sini Niemenen defines language play as “the play of or with language” and notes that language play, including word play, forms “a deliber- ate communication strategy used with a specific or pragmatic effect in mind.” According to Anne Plummer, language play manipulates the rules of discourse to create “a metalinguistic game that everyone plays.” Humorous language play often involves deviations from conventional language, such as breaking the rules of politeness. Just as with jokes, to understand and appreciate language play, readers need some knowledge of the culture, subject matter, and the authors’ and characters’ attitudes; they need to recognize the intent and context of what is communicated; and they need to understand the vocabulary, phrases, and underlying meanings.

  • The Ultimate Epic Guide to Using Dav Pilkey's Books in The
    The ULTIMATE Epic Guide to Using Dav Pilkey’s Books in the Classroom WARNING! Dav Pilkey’s books have been known to be devoured by children aged seven to one hundred years old. Even the most reluctant readers just can’t seem to get enough of that wedgie-wielding superhero, Captain Underpants! And then there are those riveting graphic novels by George Beard and Harold Hutchins, The Adventures of Ook and Gluk, Kung-Fu Cavemen from the Future; The Adventures of Super Diaper Baby; and its sequel, Super Diaper Baby 2: The Invasion of the Potty Snatchers. This guide is designed for teachers who have desperately tried to pry Dav Pilkey’s books from the hands of students during math, social studies, and science lessons. It is based on the radical concept that, hey, maybe the students who love these books so much might actually be learning something from them! Included you will find ideas for use in the classroom that will enrich your curriculum and create outrageous amounts of fun and learning. “Encourage kids to be creative without worrying about being perfect.” WARNING! Dear Teachers, When I was a kid, I loved to draw and make up stories. I didn’t worry about drawing things perfectly or spelling things correctly. I just wanted to get my ideas and stories on paper. I loved the freedom that came with creating stories just for fun. Once I got published, I spent years traveling to different schools and talking with kids about my books. During these school visits, I was surprised to learn that most kids didn’t consider themselves to be artists or writers.
