Acclaimed debut author Jeff Kinney brilliantly re-creates the normal humor and logic of middle school boys sidling into adolescence. 6th grader Greg Heffley doesn’t understand his frustrating younger sibling, obnoxious older one, or well-meaning parents. But he knows plenty of to record his daily thoughts inside a manly journal-not some girly diary. In a unique novel filled with laugh-out-loud occasions, Greg chronicles his first turbulent season of middle school. ‘[This] should keep visitors in stitches .’-Publishers Regular, starred review
