My daughter has this book, and left it lying around, so I started reading it. I couldn't put it down, and finished it that same day. It tells the story of Greg Heffley & his view of life as a middle schooler. It's very funny and I found myself smiling and laughing through the whole book.
It's written as journal entries and uses comic strip style pictures. Which makes it easy & enjoyable to read. So, it is a great book for kids who really aren't into reading.
Parents, I highly recommend this book for your kids...and for yourselves.

Greg Heffley is a 6th-grade weakling trying to make his mark in the middle school world. His family includes a mom, a dad, a heavy metal big brother, and a whiny, tattling little brother. His best friend is Rowley, another odd 6th-grader with overprotective parents and the world-class ability to annoy.
Greg is always a victim of the big, mean bullies in the school. He constantly seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. In an attempt to be "cool" he experiments with the idea of weightlifting, creating his own haunted house, running for class treasurer, and building a snowman big enough to be considered for the Guiness Book of World Records. However, the only mild success he accomplishes is as a safety guard whose job is to walk the kindergarten kids home at lunchtime. (via Kids ~ Stuff ~ World)
