A DIARY OF A WIMPY KID STORY that will have you rolling with laughter, from number one bestselling author Jeff Kinney!

Hi my name is Rowley Jefferson and this is my book. Now I have a diary just like my friend Greg… Rowley’s best friend Greg Heffley has chronicled his middle-school years in thirteen Diary of a Wimpy Kid journals. Now it’s Rowley’s turn to give his side of the story. But Rowley has agreed to tell Greg’s story along the way, too. (After all, Greg says one day he will be rich and famous and the world will need to know how he managed it). But Rowley’s stories about Greg might not be quite what his friend had in mind . . . Praise for Jeff Kinney: ‘The books contain meaty themes to do with family and friendship […] more please’. The Telegraph ‘No-one does the straight to camera narrative style of the diary better than Kinney … This is as authentic and funny as the original Wimpy Kid books and makes just as irresistible reading.’ – Andrea Reece, LoveReading4Kids Reviewer ‘Kinney is right up there with J K Rowling as one of the bestselling children’s authors on the planet’- Independent ‘The world has gone crazy for Jeff Kinney’s Diary of a Wimpy Kid’ – Sun ‘Hilarious’ – Telegraph

It was good, but it thought that the drawings would be similar to Gregg's and that some of the pages were short

This book is funny and easy to read. It's about a boy named Greg wanted to use Rowley(Greg's friend)'s diary for when he think he becomes famous for his biography. My favourite character is Rowley because he is funny. I would recommend this book to age 7+.

I think it taught me a little bit,but it was still interesting. I would like Rowley. It interested me because it's kind of teaching you how to be a friend and happens when the two are too strong. Yes I would recommend it to someone .

this book is hilarious i love it, definitely one of my favourite books I've read so far this year, and no character in that book can top Rowley he is so kind and funny and loves to get other peoples inputs on things we need people as kind and thoughtful as Rowley. I give this book a solid 5/5

This book was very funny and there was a very silly question in there. Read to find out! This was a funny fiction book and my favourite person was of course Rowley the guy who wrote it all. He is very funny to with his best friend Greg. And I would recommend it to anyone who likes funny story and diary of a wimpy kid.
