 Love this book! Nov 18, 2009
My 8 year old loves this series. He actually finished this whole book in just 2 days because he couldn't put it down. I read the series myself so I could see what he was reading and I enjoyed them.
My daughter loved it!! she is 6 Nov 14, 2009
My daughter read it twice she thinks its really funny. It says some words like idiot and stupid, but I just say that as long as she doesn't repeat it, its fine
 A funny follow-up Nov 10, 2009
I loved the first book in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series, and this one is almost as good. Greg is back with his diary that features his simple and usually hilarious cartoons. Not much has changes, which is a little confusing, as the first book covered an entire year, yet Greg appears to be the same age.
Fans of the first one will likely delight in this one too. For me, as an adult reader, there was a little more of a "woe is me" attitude about Greg's dealings with his older brother, Rodrick. His interactions with Rodrick lacked a little bit of humor for me. Rodrick seems to get away with everything, while Greg gets away with nothing. While I don't doubt Greg feels this way, the first book had a touch more humor when dealing with things Greg perceived as unfair. The scenes with Rodrick were my least favorite, but the rest of the book was up to its old form.
Greg's mom is in serious danger of stealing the show. Her quiet hilarity is fantastic, and I hope this trend continues. The best part of the book for me was the hysterical take on something very similar to Dungeons and Dragons. Although I've never played the game, it often appears in pop culture in tv shows, movies and books I enjoy. Diary of a Wimpy Kid had the best scenes and treatment I've seen of Dungeons and Dragons. Those scenes alone almost made me give this book five stars too. If you haven't read the series, start with the first one. It's delightful for parents and children alike.
My son loved this book. Oct 21, 2009
I didn't personally read this book but I can say that my son loves this series. If you're thinking about getting your child a first real book to read on his own, this is a great start. He has read all of them and now needs the new one. Actually he read each of the first three in about a week per book!
Captures the imagination Oct 20, 2009
Highly recommend for young boys, it's funny and invigorating. My son began his own diary after getting into this seies. I highly recommend it.
