I just read this book and thought it was amazing. Greg and his friends keep on trying and trying at basketball until they finally win a competition. It tells you to never give up and keep on trying. I like basketball and I have gotten better since I read this book. I haven't given up but instead tried.

I would recommend this book because it is an easy read and it makes you laugh out loud. I would recommend this book to ages 7 to 11.

I liked the book because Gregg tried a new thing (basketball) and even though he wasn't very good, he persevered. I would recommend the book to my friends because it was a good lesson in perseverance and how his family cheered him on.

It was ok, but I’m not that into sport, so I didn’t enjoy this one quite as much.

This book was so fun! I liked Edward Mealy because he has FINALLY spoken although the turtle lore is a tad bit sad. I loved the concept of going to church more fun because IT’S SO BORING YOU SIT THERE FOR A HOUR AND I ALMOST FELL ASLEEP ONCE IT’S SO AGGRAVATING. I loved when they made the sport called ‘RollerBowling’ it seems so exciting! But the 3 pointer that Greg mage was something I could never do.Also BEING TRADED BY YOUR OWN MOTHER IS ACTUALLY CRAZY SHE ACTUALLY NEEDS TO THINK ABOUT WHAT SHE JUST DID

I really enjoyed reading this book thinking about how I used to not like sports very much until I scored a goal in a football match to make me fall in love with sports. I really liked Greg Heffley and Preet I would recommend this book a lot .
