Kids all over the world can't get enough of author Jeff Kinney's hilarious, relatable stories about lovable slacker Greg Heffley and his friends. Greg chronicles his life, with its many ups and downs (more downs), in a journal filled with doodles of his teachers, classmates, and family members. Kids love the humor in these books, as well as the accessible, drawings-filled design, making them a great choice for reluctant readers. Check out all the books in the series here, in order. (Book #15 comes out Oct. 27, 2020.) The series spin-off about Greg's friend Rowley Jefferson is at the end of the list. And don't forget about the movies, too!
