Full Text Reviews:
School Library Journal - 04/01/2009 Gr 4–8— Greg Heffley's crazy antics continue in this latest installment in the series. Kinney portrays humorous and touching family dynamics between the boy and his competitive father, whom he seems to disappoint numerous times. The fast-paced narrative successfully balances Greg's home and school life, revealing an egocentric yet lovable character. As in the previous books, cartoons and journal entries blend seamlessly to convey Greg's middle school angst. His uncanny ability to fall into amusing predicaments will win even more converts to this popular series. His witty voice coupled with memorable characterization will have this offering flying off the shelves.—Meg Smith, Cumberland County Public Library, Fayetteville, NC - Copyright 2009 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
