Diary of a Wimpy Kid

Recently, during a trip to Barnes and Noble for class I was introduced to the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. I purchased the first book (Diary of a Wimpy Kid) and am currently reading it. I would highly recommend this book to anyone in this class. The book is actually a journal of Greg Heffley, a sixth grade student. Greg writes about anything a typical sixth grader would write about, friends, family, and school. The author and illustrator Jeff Kinney, does an excellent job of incorporating both text and cartoon images. The book is funny, easy to read, and very entertaining. Anyone who has gone through the sixth grade (hopefuly everyone), will have no problems relating with the characters. The book is published by Abrams Books for Young Readers and is reccomended for children between the ages of 9-12. If anyone wants to borrow the book from me when I'm done with it just let me know.

  1. This sounds like a real interesting book, and I have heard a few people say it. I might possible take the time and read it. If I do I will get back to you and let you know.If I enjoy that one, then I might try reading the others. I also have a nephew so I will reccomend it for him to read when he gets a little older.
