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.
Since its launch in May 2004 on Funbrain.com, the Web version of Diary of a Wimpy Kid has been viewed by 20 million unique online readers. This year, it is averaging 70,000 readers a day.

This book is about the life of a kid called Greg. Greg is the author of this diary. Rowley is Greg's friend. Manny is Greg's young brother. Rodrick is Greg's brother. Mom and Dad are also main characters too. Greg has some funny problems, he always did something funny. Greg is my favorite character because he is always funny. I have done few things Greg done, because I went to school too and sometimes I did funny stuff. I will recommend this book because it will bring a lot of fun.
This book is talking about a kid just going to middle school for the first time, and that how his middle school life. This story is pretty special because it is written in a diary form and that it has picture that goes with the events that happened but it still has a great and funny story to tell. The main trouble in this story is that the main character is not popular but he wants to be popular, so read as he and his best friend work their way to being the popular kids. This book super good! Go read it, I promise you that you would like it.
