![]() I must say that Greg is one entertaining character, and this is the reason I love the Wimpy Kid books. Add to this his shenanigans with his best friend Rowley in which he tries to manipulate Rowley into doing the things he doesn’t want to do, his feeble attempts to get close to Heather Hills, the hot teenage lifeguard at the public pool, his uphill battle with pet ownership, and his hilarious encounters with hairy adult men in public showers. ![]() In Jeff Kinney’s third book, Greg Heffley chronicles his eventful or uneventful summer break (whichever way you choose to see it) wherein his mother nags him into engaging into more outdoor summer activities - attempts that he resists with all his might with the use of silly excuses that no self respecting adult would fall for. I got this one as a Christmas gift from my officemate and finished it in one sitting. ![]() But even though most of the humor is juvenile, and its target market is actually 8-12 year olds, this series is actually one of my guilty pleasures. I must admit that after the third book of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series The Last Straw, I’ve fallen behind in reading about the adventures of Greg Heffley. ![]()
