Mr. Pants is a hilarious comic book style chapter book series, perfect for fans of Bad Kitty and Fly Guy!
Mr. Pants only has a few hours to make a movie with his sisters if they’re going to win the filmmaking contest and get a trip to Hawaii. Why do dumb things like chores and tea parties always get in the way? With a little creative thinking, and a big dose of goofball personality, the cats get their debut film done just in the nick of time.
And don't forget about Mr. Pants: It's Go Time!

Both dimples showing from the smiles this book's evoking
By Moi
My 10 year old (outside the stated range for this book) grabbed it at the bookstore yesterday out of the excitement he still had from reading the first Mr. Pants book last year. And this one did not disappoint. Fantastic writing, fabulous images as well. "Two dimples up!," I suppose, is the review.

By Christiana Parry
Another blockbuster hit by McCormick and Lazzell! Fans of the 2014 Mr. Pants release "It's Go Time" will be pleased the sequel has grown along with its readers. The chapters are denser with action and dialogue so the read takes about a half hour. The familiar four main characters are still fun and feisty, with illustrations that spill enthusiastic personality. This is a bedtime book my whole family will crowd around and enjoy, each kid (5 and 8) reading a different voice. Recommend to families with K-5th graders and a taste for the silly. Spoiler alert: Mom. Always. Wins.

By Matthew C. Winner
And speaking of random and crazy, the best book ever this week for me is one that I can't stop thinking about. It's called Mr. Pants: Slacks, Camera, Action! This is book #2 of the Mr. Pants series and it's written by Scott McCormick. Pictures are by R. H. Lazzell. And it comes out from Dial Books for Young Readers. And I'm gonna tell you up from that this might not be a book that you as an adult like because it is written so clearly for children. The illustrations look, I'm sure how else to say this respectfully, but they look sort of amateurish. They look wittled down enough that a kid could copy this book and make a semblance of a sequel to Mr. Pants that would fit in the same universe. And yet there's a lot of sophistication to this story and it is certainly about three cats trying to coexist in a house with a mom who is very aware that these cats talk and who talks back to them. But Mr. Pants, our protagonist, is trying to shoot a movie and is kind of forcing his family around to do different things. It's ridiculous. He enters a film show. You will laugh out loud. Your kids are going to want to read this over and over and over and over. And that is why I'm calling Mr. Pants: Slacks, Camera, Action! the best book ever this week. Way to go!This review appears on an episode of the “Best Book Ever [this week]” segment of the Let’s Get Busy podcast.
