Diary of a Wimpy Kid Old School is a book about school drama. It is funny, and it has cool characters. It takes place in modern time because they have TV and iPhones. The main character’s name is Greg Heffley. He has a younger brother and an older brother. His older brother is the troublemaker in the family besides Greg. Greg is spoiled but he does not think he is because of his lifestyle, he is lazy and kind of selfish but that partly makes the book good. This book is about his adventures. Greg mostly has to deal with problems that will get worse in the future. In this book he goes to a camp and has a bad time with the help of cabin mates and bad parents. He ends up surviving camp.
Greg is lazy, a trouble maker, brave,and determined. Greg is lazy and kind of a couch potato because once he tried to stay inside and play video games for an entire summer. He is always a troublemaker because . He is brave because he traveled through the sewers to go to his friends house. He is determined because he stayed at camp and didn’t .
I found Greg’s family is interesting. Greg is being lectured by his mom and dad all the time. His dad is always saying “you should get out more,” “When I was your age all I did was play outside” and getting him to play and be a “man.” His mom is always telling him to learn more like “let’s start a reading club!” Or “Why don’t you go outside more it’s a sunny day.”I also thought his friend Rowley is interesting because he is a goody two shoes and can’t have fun with his parents around. They will say, “Rowley Jefferson put that stick down this instant!” Greg always finds a way to get out of a mess, though most of the time he gets in trouble.
This book series I would recommend if you like easy reads, fun stories, and interesting characters. I would rate the series 3 and a half out of 5. I rate this that way because sometimes the series is slow but the characters are fun to learn about. And the characters always have funny reactions to what Greg or others do and there are other characters to learn about in the series.
This book like a good one with a lot of interesting characters. I can see why Greg would have trouble because he’s a couch potato. I can be a couch potato sometimes.
How is Greg determined if he stayed at camp and didn’t? Also I think from your description on Rowley he is really funny.
How is Greg determined if he stayed at camp and didn’t?
That sounds so funny. It sounds funny because when you say “luckily, he survived”, because it sounds like he was dying.
I really liked how you described Greg’s family and Greg’s personality because it had a lot of Greg’s personalities, and not just one. I also really like how you described the setting.
Dear Dash
I love how you explained a lot of detail to your book blog.That’s because I could really picture what everyone is like. Also I think it’s funny that you called Rowley a goody to shoes..
That sounds like another book I should read! I love your description of Greg being a ”couch potato!”
Diary of a Wimpy Kid reminds me of Dork Diaries. They are both diaries from children. Nikki in Dork Diaries also has to deal with problems.
Hi Dash,I really loved how you said lazy a few times It made me laugh a lot. awesome job.
I can’t believe how many books are in this series! I have to say, I don’t think Greg would make the best friend. I think Rowley should tell him to take a hike!
I’v heard of this book before. Nice job on the book review.
Amazing book review. I have seen the movies about Diary of a Wimpy Kid and read one book about it. I love this series it so funny like you said. I loved how you did not have to much detail to spoil it but you had just the perfect amount of detail.
Hey Dash,
it’s Wyeth, I really enjoyed your book review. It made a lot of sense because I watched the movie. But your book review is probably better nice job. From Wyeth!
