DIARY of a Wimpy Kid
Jeff Kinney
Amulet 2007
Summary
Greg is your average middle school kid, who doesn't exactly fit in with any crowd but his own--which is made up of him and his best friend Rowley, who let's admit, is not completely there and still living in elementary school. Greg tells his story by writing in, not a diary, but a journal. If any of the kids found out that he had a diary they would all make fun of him. DIARY of a Wimpy Kid captures the life of middle school life--the fears that some kids face, the challenges they face and the question of either choosing what's easy, or what's right.
Personal Review
I thought that this book was kinda humerus. It was very well done and extremely creative, with all the little cartoons to illustrate what Greg was experiencing. It probably wasn't my favorite book, but I'd recommend it to middle school kids.
Cautionary Notes
Some of the kids in the book act a little crude and at times slightly violent.
