Not for me, but I can see the appeal for kids. Realistic-ish situations in the life of an average kid. Very easy to read. Lots of pictures and mischief.
I saw the movie version of this a while ago and while I wasn't a huge fan of it, I've been wanting to give the book a try. I found a copy for a few bucks in the clearance section and read most of it in a day. I can't stand Greg Heffley. He is one of the most irritating characters I have even encount...
This book is a good ot have for the older kids as a fun brain break or busy reading. The ATOS book level is 5.4. It is a great free read book and I would lvoe to have this book on the bookshelf for students.
This a popular series within the 3rd to 5th grade range right now. The Lexile level is 950L. I would use this at the beginning of the year or even the first day of school. Greg Heffley learns in the Wimpy Kid books that starting a new school year can be hard. I would give the children ten prompts. F...
I really wish I had read this as a kid, I think I would have had a better reaction. As it is, I just kind of sat there and kept raising my eyebrows. "Really? Is that how kids are?" The illustrations were pretty amusing though, and definitely what took this from a 2-star to a 3-star. Maybe at 8 or 9 ...
This series of books are wonderful for young male students. They are very funny and interesting. It shows what this young boy goes through with school, family and girls. There are not many books that are set focused on the interest of boys so I would keep these in my classroom library and recommend...
When this book came out, I was a little too old to fully appreciate it, but my two younger brothers absolutely adored this book. Sometimes it is difficult to get young boys reading and then getting them interested in what they are reading. With this book, I have seen kids who absolutely hate reading...
World Book Day BookI'm very obviously not the target audience here but I'm worried about Greg. I think Greg might be a little psychopath. Anyhoots, reading this at the bequest of my nephew. He wants to talk books with adults and was rather shocked that I read so much and hadn't read this yet. He thi...
I should have read this book a decade before . But reading this book made me smile at many pages and continuously remind me a quote which I liked very much."Fairy tales do not tell children the dragons exist. Children already know that dragons exist. Fairy tales tell children the dragons can be kil...
There was not real consistent plot or story line here that I could find, so I'll just name off a few of my favorite parts:1. Halloween- First of all, the costume thing was pretty hilarious. I really like the toilet paper idea.2. Wizard of Oz- Poor Greg totally ruined the show. But it was hilarious. ...
