Diary of a Wimpy Kid


Diary of a Wimpy Kid
Written by Jeff Kinney
Published by Amulet in 2007
224 pages.
Genre: Social Issues, Humor, Graphic Novel
Summery: Greg is a wimpy kid. He's stuck in middle school with a bunch of morons. His older brother and younger brother are equally unapproachable. And on top of everything, his mother is making him keep a diary.
Response: Laughed out loud at every. single. page. Excellent cartoons to supplement the quirky, true to life writing.
Word of Caution: The laughter this book induces may give you a hernia. Hmm, I guess I could mention the bullying too. Except even the bullying is funny. (Oops. I shouldn't say that. Beating up wimpy kids is not supposed to be funny.)
