Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules
Back in July 2007, I told you about Diary of a Wimpy Kid, the embarrassing tales of middle-schooler Greg Heffley. Well, he's back in Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules. As you may recall, Rodrick is his older brother who always, always gets the better of Greg. But, let's be real, Greg brings a lot of grief on himself. For instance, when Greg dog sits his neighbor’s dog while they are on vacation--the dog would never do his stuff while he was being walked, but then proceeds to poop in the house after the walk. After a few days of cleaning up the mess, Greg decides to let it pile up and clean it the day the neighbors are due home. But…they come home a day early. You get the picture, and it’s not pretty.
The story is told in both narrative and drawings, which add a whole other level of humor. So, if you want a good laugh, I highly recommend the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. Stay tuned, because there are more adventures on the way.
Learn all about Greg at his website: http://www.wimpykid.com/.
