The Adventures of Super Diaper Baby: 



Description:


The Adventures of Super Diaper Baby is an American children's novel by Dav Pilkey, credited as "George Beard and Harold Hutchins", categorized as part of the author's Captain Underpants series of books as a spin-off to the series. The narrative begins with a married couple, Bill and Mary Hoskins, anticipating the birth of their first child. As the book begins, the expectant parents rush to the hospital, as Mary Hoskins is in labor.

Meanwhile, in another location, Deputy Dangerous and his pet, a talking dog named Danger Dog drain Captain Underpants of his superpowers by using the Deputy's "Super Power Taker-Awayer Ray 2000". The device steals the superhero's power and converts it into a liquid that Deputy Dangerous and Danger Dog plan to consume; however, the two are interrupted by the arrival of the police and Danger Dog manages to drink only half of the liquid. Both Deputy Dangerous and Danger Dog manage to evade the police.

Back at the hospital, Mary Hoskins gives birth to a baby boy, Billy. The attending doctor accidentally sends Billy flying out of a window into the bucket containing the liquid of Captain Underpants's secret powers. Billy drinks the juice, gaining the super powers, and overpowers both Deputy Dangerous and Danger Dog, both of whom are then apprehended by the police. Billy then flies back to the maternity ward, holding onto the nurse who attempted to diaper him, to be reunited with his parents.

Danger Dog and Deputy Dangerous escape from the "City Jail for Bad Guys and Dogs" to their secret lab on top of a mountain. Deputy Dangerous invents the "Danger Crib 2000", which can transmit superpowers from babies to his brain via satellite. They send it to the Hoskins family under the pseudonyms "Deputy Un-Dangerous" and "Safety Dog". Billy poops in his diaper one minute before the transmitting time of midnight and his mother removes him from the crib to give him a very nice bath just as the "Heat-Seeking Dish" that drains the powers turns on. Instead of transmitting the coveted superpowers of Captain Underpants to Deputy Dangerous; the "Danger Crib 2000" transmits the poop, turning him into a small turd (albeit with limbs, a face, and the same cowboy wardrobe).

The next morning, Deputy Dangerous invents the "Robo-Ant 2000" so he can take over the world. He asks Danger Dog's opinion, but instead Danger Dog coins the name "Deputy Doo-Doo", much to the Deputy's dismay. Instead of helping, Danger Dog goofs off by changing signs around. Billy hears the robot and decides to stop it, but he is defeated by Deputy Doo-Doo and taken to a nuclear power plant. Danger Dog saves Billy, while the Ant loses balance and falls into the power plant instead, then, Danger Dog takes Billy home. Bill and Mary want to keep "Safety Dog", but the Landlord who stepped on Deputy Doo-Doo earlier worries that Danger Dog might urinate on and stain the carpet. However, he changes his mind when they put a diaper on him and rename him Diaper Dog.

Meanwhile, back at the power plant, radioactivity causes Deputy Doo-Doo to grow into a giant, and he resumes rampaging through the city. Super Diaper Baby and Diaper Dog fly out to stop him, but Diaper Dog notes that they shouldn't touch the now-radioactive Deputy Doo-Doo. Instead, they trick him into attacking himself, and they wrap him up using a giant toilet paper roll (taken from the top of a building called "Bob's Toilet Paper Co."), and remove him to the planet Uranus.

On the way back to Earth, they stop by at a "Starbutts" on Mars, decide to take some Super Power Juice back to Earth, and go to the laundromat where Captain Underpants is held captive. They restore his powers, and all is right with the world.
