i want to read this book soooooooooooooo bad because the first 2 were pretty funny. i cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This book should be denominated "Diary of a Wimpy FATHER"! Greg's dad is silly, dumb and has no authority on his children.
If you've enjoyed Diary of a Wimpy Kid #1, you should definitely follow the series because it keeps getting hilarious with each installment.
It's New Years and that means making resolutions. Greg's resolution is to make sure others stick to their resolutions and it starts off with a bang until he realizes that everyone else has given up on their resolutions and he gives up on his too since he didn't make any real progress. Greg received a laundry hoop as a Christmas present from his uncle but he doesn't do his own laundry but his mum thinks it to be a good idea. We find out later on that Greg didn't do his laundry for months and he w...
Diary of a Wimpy kid The Last Straw:I learned that if you're going to stand over a vent with a robe on, lock the door.Never burry money in a time capsle.And never go to a sleepover with a friends kerate classmates.The main character is Greg Hefley,a boy that is writing in a diary/journal and tells all about his life in words and pictures.His big brother Rodrick is always torchering Greg by hiding all of the phones when Greg needs to make a call.His little brother Many always drives Greg crazy by...
The series just gets better, it just gets more funny with each page👍However, the main narrator is not my favorite character.I just cannot wait for the youngest member of the family to start speaking😉I cannot believe I have not been reading this series all these years!Feeling blessed to read it now in 2019😊
Fun and easy read, entertaining and light- it's a book you can take not too seriously. It's something you can rely on during quick breaks or waiting for a ride.
The wimpy kid books never fail to make me laugh. Kinney has a great sense of comic timing in these books and the pictures really do make the story what it is.What bothers me about these books is the main character's attitude and the way he treats others. I hope that kids see that the reason Greg gets himself into trouble all the time is because of his attitude. Instead of looking up to him, it's my hope that kids who read this book say, "Man, if Greg just treated people with a little more respec...
Every once in a while you need a break from wizard boys, sparkling vampires, conspiracy theories, go-nowhere love stories, end-of-the-world page turners and the never ending stream of parallel worlds.Every once in a while you need to forget that you are a full-blown adult whose literary tastes are mature and discerning and who, to put it mildly is a bit up-yourself.Every once in a while, you need to escape into the world of a Wimpy middle-school Kid who is high on smarts and low on luck.It’s tim...
The Nephew put this book in my hands and told me to read it. The Niece agreed and both told me it was so funny. It was taking me a while to read and the Nephew kept demanding I finish it so he could get his book back. Never make the Nephew mad. This is more adventures of the Greg Heffley. He spends a lot of time locked out of rooms in his underwear in these series. It's obvious people, especially kids, think being in your underwear is hilarious. They take scenes from Book 3 and book 4 and they p...
3.5 stars!Poor Greg has a tough time in this one. I found this book funnier than the last one, though I can't remember since I read it a long time ago.It took me 4 days to complete this book, thanks to my busy life. But I'm glad I picked it up, as I was actually able to finish it.A hilarious short read(with cartoons, of course!). Definitely recommended for humour lovers.
I never tire of this series. I just think the humor is so right on! I read often that the book appeals to reluctant readers and I would seriously challenge that. It appeals to ALL readers in fifth grade. Let's face it, we were all a "Greg Heffley" in fifth grade. Unless of course you were a "Rowley" in which case, I am very sorry. There was a part that had me seriously laughing so hard. (I am not giving anything away here, it will just be much funnier when you read it yourself) Greg had gone to
Greg Heffley continues with his hilarious journal. It seems that he has now become accustomed to writing it, because there are no gripes about that in this book. Or maybe it is because he has much more serious things to worry about... like the school soccer team and military school.Dad is determined to make a man out of Greg. Greg is quite happy to stay a wimp, playing with the latest video games and trying to impress the beautiful Holly Hills. However, being the kind of person he is, Greg finds...
Greg, the main character of this incredibly funny series, is a middle schooler whose universe revolves around him. He was quite selfish in the first two books. But that was nothing. Greg is reaching the pinnacle of selfishness in this book. He always has an idea how to benefit himself even if it hurts someone else inclusing his best friend or family members. But there still is karma in the world (Greg doesn't know about it). This might be the funniest book in the series so far. Loved it!Enjoy!
I heard about this series from NPR and decided to get the first one for my boy. I'm glad I got it. It's honest, clever, funny, and sweet without being nauseatingly so. I understand the character and his "uniquenesses". He reminds me of Charlie Brown except for one major difference. The main character accepts himself without all the self depricating self-analyzation. "I am the best person I have ever known." I love nerds.
3,5 Stars.I read this one, with my nine-year-old brother. He is such a big fan of the series and i always enjoy reading by his side.This series is a highly entertaining collection of books that offer much laugh, but notably not much, educationally speaking.That is not such a big deal, if you know exactly why you are reading a book. There are not all of them about inspiration and highly profound meanings. Some plain, simple fun is well needed too, and those books will provide just that.Maybe if y...
This was my first trip into this series, I think this book was clever being the first of its kind, but I think overall this book has a lot of problems. For example, the biggest I have with this book is that is gives more reasons for kids today to not read a real book, a chapter book with no pictures. Second the main character, Greg, I like the kid who plays him in the movie, but in the book I find him to a self centered, self fish, most of all lazy kid who takes advantage of his best friend, Row...
Meh! Not bad, I always get through these real quick, but it wasn't funny or anything, and Greg really gets on my nerves sometimes. Especially when it comes to how he treats Rowley.
Typical mayhem ensues, Gregory and Rodrick and the rest of the Heffley family yuck it up as the "wimpy kid" continues to behave in the same self-serving manners which could possibly land him in military school.I think this is a cute series, just right for my oldest sons age group. Not only is it funny, but at times we find ourselves stopping and discussing what a spoiled rotten kid Greg is!!
For series like this, the writer should have brilliant creativity that prevents the books from becoming less attractive. Maybe some fans don't agree with me, but this book wasn't as strong as the first two. I explain why.1. Weak theme: Trying to attract a girl? It's not unique at all. And whenever the writer was out of creativity, he went for that.2. Lack of sparkle moments: I remember the book one by "cheese touch", but I can't name any memorable moment in this book. "laundry hoop" was good, bu...
