Secrets have a way of getting out, especially when a diary is involved.
Whatever you do, don’t ask Greg Heffley how he spent his summer vacation, because he definitely doesn’t want to talk about it.
As Greg enters the new school year, he’s eager to put the past three months behind him . . . and one event in particular.
Unfortunately for Greg, his older brother, Rodrick, knows all about the incident Greg wants to keep under wraps. But secrets have a way of getting out . . . especially when a diary is involved.
Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules chronicles Greg’s attempts to navigate the hazards of middle school, impress the girls, steer clear of the school talent show, and most important, keep his secret safe.
Greg Heffley rules! Jeff Kinney, Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules (Anthem, 2008)
Kinney's second installment in the insanely popular Diary of a Wimpy Kid series takes us through Greg Heffley's eighth-grade year, but there's a good deal more focus on Greg's family here, as Kinney examines Greg's relationship with his brother Rodrick more closely. Oh, sure, there's a lot of Rowley (and Greg wondering why the seemingly borderline-slow Rowley seems to get all the girls), and some funny scenes at school, but we get to know the Heffleys a lot better in this volume. As fun and readable as ever. *** ½
From Bloody Bad Book Blog Another great book about Greg and his many adventures. Though, I didn't like this one as well as I liked the first, it doesn't mean Kinney shouldn't deserve great praise. These illustrated books about the funniest parts of being a kid are well worth the read for kids and nostalgic adults alike. I will be reading the third book as soon as I can get my hands on it.
CGE Student Review The title of my book is Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Roderick Rules. The author is Jeff Kinney. Other books by the author are diary of a wimpy kid 1 another is diary if a wimpy kid 3. They are all about the main character Greg and the hard ships of growing up. Jeff Kenny's writing style is in the diary format some of the characters are Greg, Roderick, Greg`s mom, Greg`s dad, Fregly, uncle Charley and Rowly. Something that you should know is that a lot of the pages in the book have cartoon like pictures on them and that the print is pretty big also it is a pretty hilarious book I would surely recommend it to my friends. One of my favorite scenes from the book is when Greg finds like a hundred thousand mom bucks. And traded them in for real money If you like super hilarious book I would recommend this book to you.
Great Books - great price! I bought all 4 books from the WImpy Kid series for my soon to be 8 yr old! He loves them. Already read one whole book. And I got them just in time for him to read over the summer. I looked everywhere for these books and this was the best price....and they are hard cover, which are way more durable for the younger readers! Very cute cartoons, and it makes the little guys think they are reading huge chapter books, the point is to get them to read, and enjoy it. These books do just that.
The book is great, but the CD is boring... My children love all books in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. When they noticed the audio book in the library, they got so excited, that we had to rent it out. We listened to it in the car, but the narrator was so monotone and boring, that we returned it without going through even the 1st Cd. I am glad that I didn't buy it!!! If you like audio books, I highly recommend the "A-Z Mysteries" and the "Halfmoon Investigations" . Both are great, with excellent narrators.
