Product Description
Boys don’t keep diaries—or do they?
The launch of an exciting and innovatively illustrated new series narrated by an unforgettable kid every family tree can tell to
It’s a new school year, and Greg Heffley finds himself thrust into middle school, where puny 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 pleased 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.
Leader/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 really 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.

The merchant cancelled the order twice. I finally went to Barnes and Noble and bought it for $14.99. (It wouldn’t let me choose zero stars to rate it, so that’s the only reason I chose 1 star.)

After a fabulous experience with the graphic novel American Born Chinese, our book club of 6th grade girls and their moms was sorely disappointed in Diary of a Wimpy Kid. The leader misses several opportunities to weave together disparate events into a meaningful plot. The writing is dull, the characters are barely even one-dimensional, and the humor is obviously written by a name who is not current in middle school dynamics.
This one is one to let remain on the library shelf.

Kind of disappointing. The web journal is way better, and it has a lot more pages. Didn’t like it.

The success of this “humorous book” just goes to underscore that, in today’s America, anyone can make an unmerited chance doing anything. I have yet to derive the first laugh from this uncreative, derivative nonsense.

These books are droll vignettes of daily being.
Greg’s days consist principally of dodging the paper wads and water balloons
life swats his way. I was weary myself by the time I finished the 1st book. The series was provided to my grandchild’s 2nd grade class to read. My grandchild place into the world persistent effort to read them and seemed to delight in doing so. But, I am of the opinion children should be spared exposure to the the tedium and fatigue of adult life until they are—let’s say, young adults.
