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.

This book is the reason why I am a Diary of a Wimpy Kid Fan!
Like the movie from 2010, this book is about a middle school student who is very unpopular. He must deal with school, homework, and home life in order to be successful.
Greg Heffley, a middle-schooler who is always struggle with family, friends, and school. He has two brothers, an older brother, Rodrick who is never miss a opportunity to embarrass Greg, and has a band, Loded Dipers. (Loded Dipers are really spell by Loaded Diapers)! And his younger brother, Manny, who is kinda spoiled 3 years old toddler who never gets in trouble by what Manny really did. Greg`s best but good friend, Rowley Jefferson; who always willing to do what Greg says, even in the dangerous situation, who always goes on the vacations which annoys Greg the most. But the main and important lesson in this book; like other by the way who they really are. I would def recommend this book. - Happy Reading!
