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.

my brother was not so good at reading so I mentioned this book and now he is a genious at reading
Diary of a Wimpy Kid has a series, and I read the first book. Book 1 is very interesting, especially with the main character, Greg. Greg is not normal at all with very funny thinking. This makes this book more interesting, and also his family and friends are not normal I think. When one of them is not acting like this book, then this book is not going to be that interesting. This book organized the characteristic and use it in interesting way. Th author knows that and led to be in better way. I am expected with next book. I want to read all of this series, I really enjoyed.
This book is about Greg and his brother Rodrick having fights over almost everything. In this book, Greg is explaining that Rodrick always have control of everything and he can never do anything to Rodrick before. I think that this book is really funny and random because there were many unexpected parts.
