Super Mario Advance is a book based on Super Mario Bros. 2 and, as its name implies, Super Mario Advance. As such, it stars Luigi, Mario, Peach, and Toad. It is the first of four Game Boy books and was published in September, 2001. It is an interactive gamebook which allows the reader to make choices that affect the outcome of the story as Mario and his friends battle Wart and his minions to rescue the fairies of Subcon.

The book begins with Mario having a dream about climbing a staircase, until he reaches the top, which has a closed door. Mario opens the door, and he sees the land of Subcon before him. Some time later, he goes on a picnic with Toad, Luigi, and Peach, and they all find a door, which leads them to the world of Subcon. However, their guide book gets blown away, and one of the heroes goes off to retrieve it, starting the adventure.

If the player gets a bad ending, the book will tell the player to flip to another page, where the actual ending is described; Mario, Peach, Toad, or Luigi wake up, wonder what happened, something will happen that will let them start their day, and they will head out of their room.

The book's good ending involves reaching Wart, and, while Mario, Luigi, and Toad are trapped in his bubbles, Peach manages to retrieve a vegetable from a vegetable machine, and throws it into Wart's mouth. After doing this a few more times, Wart disappears.
