Book Summary: Diary of a Wimpy Kid



Source: https://archive.org/details/DiaryOfAWimpyKidSeries/page/n5

 Diary of A Wimpy Kid is written by Jeff Kinney. This book was in the works since 1998. This book became a bestseller overnight when it was released in 2007. 

 It is written as Greg's diary, spanning his entire school year, from the first day through the last. Greg is a funny, imaginative, and fairly self-centered middle schooler who is mainly interested in video games and girls. 

A lot of the drama in the story comes from Greg's misdeeds. Like with a lot of other entertainment for young adults, it's both fun and informative to see Greg behaving badly. 

We can find some fun in the irony of him thinking he's doing what's best, and learn from the mistakes he makes when navigating his teenage years and his friendships.

* Point of View:
      - The main character is very funny.
      - The story is enjoyable and not boring.
      - The words at this book is quite easy to understand. But there it has some challenging words as well.
      - Life Lessons:
        1. Greg always learns from his mistakes.
        2. Friendships is the priority for him.

 * Closing Statement:
         I recommend this book for teens and younger teens. Because this book telling a story about how teens life in school so it will be more understandable if teens read this book. There also many humorous moments in this book. Which is really enjoyable.
