About this book

George and Harold are in a sticky situation! Their latest prank has snotty school brainiac Melvin Sneedly seeing red and he can't wait to get them back. But when Melvin tries to transform himself into a bionic-powered superboy, things get a little gloppy -- and the Bionic Booger Boy is born! Can Captain Underpants beat this blobby behemoth of blech or is the entire world doomed to drown in disgusting nose-dribble?
