This is a funny book! I think kids 8+ would love to read the whole series!!!

While the attitude of the main character is not always what I would like to see (lazy, at timesnegative) it is a reality that my son relates too. It's a book he reads over and over. This series is what 'hooked' my son on reading, so I'd recommend it as a good entry book.

this was a good book. im not trying to be like a parent though but i think the drawings in this book are nasty. rodrick draws greg being pushed off a cliff, and the violent movie project shows violent pictures like a knife sticking out of a skull and a guy shooting a tank & the tanks shooting a building thats being bombed too. also, greg draws a picture that says dont smoke or youll look like me with a ugly guy smoking and he also talks about a kid smoking too.

c

some bullying language "jerk" and "nerd", and a kid gets kuddos for getting into the opposite sex's bathroom at school. and the boys are described as trying to get girls to be interested in them, a student from high school smokes is seen in a book, and greg and rodrick draws pictures of each other being pushed off a cliff, which this diary of a wimpy kid series is way more different than the part one, notice: diary of a wimpy kid 2 rodrick rules movie will be in theaters in march 2011
