Diary of a Wimpy Kid

From: $3.55

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.

From: Amazon Posted: Dec 06, 2007 Type: User Review My AH/HD 9yo Boy...LOVES this book

I have a hard time getting him to read anything. He likes the comic book written stories and this fullfills that with a little more substance.

YEAH!

My son read this book in two days. For a reluctant reader such as himself, this was quite an accomplishment! The book is hilariously funny, and with the combination of writing and cartoons it's sure to be a hit -- especially with boys.

From: Amazon Posted: Nov 26, 2007 Type: User Review I laughed until I cried, and I'm 54 years old!

My 11-year-old great-niece asked for this book for Christmas, but I thought I should look it over before making a decision. Once I started reading Greg's deadpan descriptions of his life, I found myself laughing aloud -- really loud -- beginning...
