February 2019 Book of the Month

The Heffleys head off on holiday in this latest Wimpy Kid adventure. It’s supposed to be a dream break but, as recounted by wimpy kid Greg in his usual doleful, deadpan way together with the action-filled comic-strip style illustrations, is pretty much a non-stop catalogue of disasters, from the moment the Heffleys pick up the wrong luggage on their (delayed) flight, to insect, bird and lizard attacks, a burst banana boat and nightmare cruise. It makes for very funny reading of course, and Kinney as ever absolutely nails family and teen life – I particularly enjoyed the subplot describing the miserable time had by big brother Roderick. Holiday reading doesn’t get any better than this.

I love this book.I started reading the diary of a wimpy kid book's when I was 6. I got the idea when my brother read the world book day (diary of Greg Heffley best friend Rowley Jefferson)book My favourite part is when Greg finds a big Spider in his slipper! I would definitely recommend it.
