Product Description:
Boys don’t keep diaries—or do they?

The launch of an exciting and innovatively illustrated new series narrated by an unforgettable kid every family can relate to

It’s a new school year, and Greg Heffley finds himself thrust into middle school, where undersized weaklings share the hallways with kids who are taller, meaner, and already shaving. The hazards of growing up before you’re ready are uniquely revealed through words and drawings as Greg records them in his diary.

In book one of this debut series, Greg is happy to have Rowley, his sidekick, along for the ride. But when Rowley’s star starts to rise, Greg tries to use his best friend’s newfound popularity to his own advantage, kicking off a chain of events that will test their friendship in hilarious fashion.

Author/illustrator Jeff Kinney recalls the growing pains of school life and introduces a new kind of hero who epitomizes the challenges of being a kid. As Greg says in his diary, “Just don’t expect me to be all ‘Dear Diary’ this and ‘Dear Diary’ that.” Luckily for us, what Greg Heffley says he won’t do and what he actually does are two very different things.

Since its launch in May 2004 on Funbrain.com, the Web version of Diary of a Wimpy Kid has been viewed by 20 million unique online readers. This year, it is averaging 70,000 readers a day.

5 out of 5 starsGreat Books ^
My son is 9 and would, quite honestly, do anything under the sun to avoid reading. I don't know what sparked me to buy this book other than the title being cute, but it was the smartest thing I did. My son picked it up and immediately took to it. What impressed me was that he actually read the whole thing within a day or two and was excited. He would actually take the time to talk about it to me and my husband. How great is that?! He then went to the library to find the other books and asked me to buy the ones he couldn't find. He has now read them all. My only problem now is...now what?! What do I get him interested in next to keep this flow of reading going. So for those of you who are looking for a book for a kid that hates to read...this is your book. Just be prepared to buy the whole series!



5 out of 5 starsLoved it! ^
This is a laugh out loud book. My four boys took turns reading to each other and laughing. Have a reluctant reader? Try this book!



5 out of 5 starsA Book Review ^

Diary of a Wimpy Kid is about a boy who gets made fun of because he has a diary. He has only one friend whose name is Rowley. Rowley is very weird. The main character in this book is Greg Heffly.

This story takes place in a neighborhood and a school. Greg has a older brother and has a band. They play a game at school where there is a rotten piece of cheese. If you touch it you have the cheese touch, until you touch someone else. After that, they go trick-or-treating. Greg' s dad likes to jump out of the bushes and scare people by splashing water on them. Then, Greg and his friend make a haunted house. After that, some teen agrees start chancing them in their truck. Next, his dad scares the teen agrees and splashes water on them.

After, Halloween his dad makes him join the wrestling team at school. Every time he wrestles he. A little later in the story he auditions for the" WIZARD OF OZ". Greg gets the part of a tree. Greg gets in a friend Rowley and they aren't friends any more. Greg feels bad about it. Later, in the school year the teen agrees come back to seek their revenge, so they make Rowley eat the rotten piece of cheese. On the next day of school, the kids notice the cheese is gone. Greg lies and says that he threw the cheese away, so that on body would know that Rowley ate the cheese. Guess what? Greg got his friend back.

I would recommend this book to people who like funny books and, happy endings.

Dairy of a Wimpy Kid By: Jeff Kinney is a story about a kid named Greg Heffley who has a miserable life. Greg is always into trouble and is always coming up with good and bad ideas all of the time.

This story takes place in the United States. It happens in present day. My book is about Greg sometimes making a problem better and sometimes making it worse. He also gets in trouble a lot. Greg is not an only child he has two brothers Manny and Ridrok.

Manny is a tatle-tale and calls his brother Bubby. Rodrick has a band named Loaded Diper and when he has to do a project , he always bails out .

Greg's mom bought a dairy for him. His worst fear is if some big kid saw him with it. The only reason he did it was if he was going to be famous he was not going to answer guestions all day.

I would recommend this book because it makes you laugh. I would recommend it to my cousins and friends. I am glad I read this book, and you will be too.

Diary of a Wimpy kid by Jeff Kenny. This is a story is mostly about a kid that is
teased by his brother and other kids at his school. He has a friend,Rowley, and they do a lot of crazy things together, and he still gets in trouble by his brother Manny.

The story begins at a school, and he says this is not a diary. It takes place in September, and he got bullied and everyone called him a sissy.

One day in September he is going to school. When he gets there he is getting called a sissy. Then,
when he gets in class he has a journal. So he writes morons,
and a arrow pointing to them. He try's to do something about it, and he gets in trouble.

My favorite part of this book is when he gets in trouble, and when they make the Haunted House. Finally, when Manny brings his super model brother's magazine to school. I like this book because you can't stop reading it. It is hilarious, and it is the funniest book I ever read.

I would recommend this book to people how like funny books, and who like a good laugh.
