I'm 13. It's not as good as the first book. The dog is not in it enough. It's pretty funny. Greg makes some really funny decisions.

Looking forward to number 4!
My nine year old loved the other books in this series and can't wait to get his hands on this one. I hear there is a movie in the works, too.

Let's Hear it For The Wimpy Kid!
My children cannot get enough of the "Wimpy Kid" series....teachers are fans as well...great books to engage young boys (often a hard audience to grab!) My 9-year-old and 12-year-old had to play rock-paper-scissors to see who got to read the new book first!

Loved all 4!!
Our 9 year has read and enjoyed them all. She was so excited to learn number 4 was coming from her school book order that she reread the first 3 to get ready. She would often laugh out load and read sections to us.

Excellent Follow up to the series!
One more in the series and Tripp just LOVED it! He read it cove to cover in a day and then read it again. My only concern is the same that I have with many books and Movies - is that we are no longer teaching out kids to be GREAT, but just to be mediocre. It' s an over simplification, i know. But while I would include more take-away life lessons, I still liked the humor and how Tripp was all over it
