Dairy Of A Wimpy Kid: Double Down

Greg Heffley is an ordinary middle schooler who prefers video games over phys Ed. one day he watches this TV show about this guy who’s life is secretly being filmed. He wonders if his life is also being secretly filmed so when he is standing in the shower he gets a bit nervous. “Diary of a wimpy kid: Double down” is about Greg Heffley struggling with everything from his future to him having a girlfriend and a motorcycle. Greg is funny, desperate for a decent life, a “loser” at his school.

 

If There is a movie about someone’s who’s life is secretly being filmed then isn’t there a pretty good chance that Greg’s life could also be being filmed? The creepy thing is though, that all the other people in the tv show besides the main character aren’t actually being secretly filmed they’re actors! So that means that gregs family could be ACTORS. Like his brother always fights with him but if he’s just an actor then who KNOWS, maybe one day him and Greg will be…buddies! But if Greg’s parents are actors then that’s just messed-up! I mean if they watch you while you’re in the shower and pick out your  clothes then…I don’t even know what to say.

 

Sometimes Greg Heffley wonders if his life is really good enough to be on a TV show, so every now and then Greg will do something that will get the people at home watching a laugh, like falling on purpose of slipping in dog poo. Because in his opinion: “who wants to see a movie about some kid who stays up till midnight doing homework?”

 

I would give this book ten stars out of ten because it’s HILARIOUS! This book is pretty easy to read though so it’s definitely not the best book to read for reading thirty minutes a day. You should REALLY read this book and the Diary Of A Wimpy Kid series. This is the last book for now. It’s at the end of the series. You don’t have to read all the books before this one in the diary of a wimpy kid series though. It will make perfect sense even if you don’t. Please comment and let me know what you think of this book review!       

 

 

 

 

Who Was King Tut

Image result for who was king tut? the bookThe book I’m reading is called who was King Tut, it takes place in the early 13oos, in the desert, back then, life was very different. People got married at the very young age of  ten. Also, kings and queens and other people of the 13oos wore clothes that were much more different than the clothes and accessories we wear today. The Kings dressed very fancy with beads on their fancy hats and crowns. King Tut grew up in the desert. Many of the Games, toys and clothes that once belonged King tut are in museums. When the museums first opened with all the treasures inside, people went crazy trying to get in. People were amazed by all the famous King’s treasures. So who was King Tut? King Tut was a boy king and the ruler of Egypt who died before he was twenty. He is Also a three thousand year old mummy! He was born around 1343. He became the king of Egypt when he was 10 years old. Back then when someone died, they would paint pictures of them. But it was not only to remember them and honor but the people believed that the pictures  could come back to life. So the artists made sure to include all the persons arms and leg so that the person would be able to walk when he/she “came back to life.” Also the artists had to draw the person when he/she was young and and healthy. If the person came back to life they would want to look young and healthy not old and sick like around the time they died. Although not born of royalty, Nefertiti looked very much like she belonged with the people of royalty. Nefertiti was Tut’s wife.  Nefertiti was very beautiful. In the 3100s, people believed that there were these gods:

Thoth: God of the moon. Anubis: God of cemeteries. Isis: God of protecting children.

These gods were important to the people of Egypt. The most important god of all was Amun-Ra, god of the sun. he appeared in human form. Every day day he rode across the sky in his chariot. When king tut was under the age of twenty he died. After his death he became a mummy in egypt. His mummy in in museums today. We do not know if Tut had children. There were two baby girls next to Tut’s mummy those may have been his children we don’t really know. A lot of things are still unknown about tut, but by the looks of things, life was NOT the same and that is what we know for sure. I would recommend this book if you’re into history and I would give it four stars out of five because it was really good but it just wasn’t my favorite book in the world. Thanks for reading!

Mrs. Piggle Wiggle by Betty Macdonald

Mrs. Piggle Wiggle helps little girl love to wash dishes. This book is called Mrs. Piggle Wiggle. It is a chapter book that I really like because it’s about kids with problems in life. Kind of. This book is also a series. The series are called Mrs. Piggle Wiggle by Betty Macdonald. This book doesn’t really tell you the setting all I know is that it is in the country because later in the book this doofus guy runs around on a donkey or a horse.  There are lots of main characters but we’ll focus on these two: Mrs. Piggle Wiggle and the little girl.  

  

Mrs. Piggle Wiggle is a old lady who has one cat and one dog and she loves children very much. If a child is acting strange she knows just what to do. For example one little girl hates washing dishes. Once she visited Mrs. Piggle Wiggle. Then she went home and loved doing dishes for the rest of her life. Mrs. Piggle Wiggle is funny and caring. I know she cares about others because she gives cures for kids.          

 

One day, Mrs. Piggle Wiggle was sitting by the living room and wishing she had company. A little girl walked by. She had a suitcase. Mrs. Piggle Wiggle asked her to please come in so she did. “ Why do you look so sad?” Mrs. Piggle Wiggle asked the girl. “Because my mom makes me wash the dishes everyday! So I’m running away from home!” said the girl being overly dramatic. That is one of my favorite parts because she is sobbing over DISHES! So Mrs. Piggle Wiggle said, “I will teach you how to love washing dishes!” Mrs. Piggle Wiggle clapped her hands and led the girl into the kitchen. Mrs. Piggle Wiggle explained this fun game to love washing dishes. “Now, you work for a evil witch who makes you do the dishes every day!” says Mrs. Piggle Wiggle.

 

The girl gave a disgusted face. “If she finds one single crumb on the floor than you will be thrown into the dungeon!” says Mrs. Piggle Wiggle making scary faces. “So get to work or else the witch will not be happy.” So the girl got to work scrubbing the dishes clean, and by the time she was done, the kitchen was spotless! Than down came Mrs. Piggle Wiggle, dressed up like a witch. The “witch” looked under every table and as she searched for messes, she could not find a single one. The “witch” left and down came the real Mrs. Piggle Wiggle. The girl hugged Mrs. Piggle Wiggle.  And dashed out the door and loved washing dishes for the rest of her life! “Thank you Mrs. Piggle Wiggle,” she said.  “Thank you.”  Later in the book, more kids come back with their problems.
I would give this book 4/four stars. I really enjoyed this book. I recommend this book because It’s funny. Nanny Mcphee is a movie that is related to Mrs. Piggle Wiggle because it is again, a movie about a sitter that saves the day. (Mrs. Piggle Wiggle is way better.)
