Novel Ideas: Diary of a Wimpy Kid

It's Monday, and that means ... Novel Ideas! Every Monday, we take a look at a juvenile fiction/chapter book. They won't always be brand-new books - sometimes we'll take a look at old favorites. Looking for a good read? Check out our Novel Ideas posts. Have a suggestion for a great book to review? Let us know!





This week's found novel is:
The Diary of a Wimpy Kid series by Jeff Kinney

New Lenox Library Call Number: J KIN

Greg Heffly does NOT keep a diary. He keeps a journal, and a funny one at that, telling all about the ins and outs of middle school, his best friend Rowley, his brothers and his parents. Greg draws pictures to go along with his journal entries, and these are funnier (sometimes) than the stories he tells! When he tells about the "cheese touch," you will be laughing out loud.
