Review: Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules by Jeff Kinney

Description:
Secrets have a way of getting out, especially when a diary is involved.

Whatever you do, don’t ask Greg Heffley how he spent his summer vacation, because he definitely doesn’t want to talk about it.

As Greg enters the new school year, he’s eager to put the past three months behind him . . . and one event in particular.
Unfortunately for Greg, his older brother, Rodrick, knows all about the incident Greg wants to keep under wraps. But secrets have a way of getting out . . . especially when a diary is involved.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules chronicles Greg’s attempts to navigate the hazards of middle school, impress the girls, steer clear of the school talent show, and most important, keep his secret safe.

Review:
The cheese-touch returns!  As is true for book 1 in the series, Jeff Kinney creates a hilarious plot line , colorful characters, and the crazy situations that only Greg Heffley can get himself into.
 
Kinney did NOT disappoint with the second installment.  It’s just as creative, original, and side-splittingly entertaining as the first.  It’s hard to figure out what to say about this book, mostly because it is just so GREAT!  The secret that Rodrick has help over Greg for the entire book is awesome!  I was so excited how things turned out for Greg and Rodrick.

If only my middle school years could have been so much fun!
 
A great, easy middle-grade read!
 
5 Stars: So excited to read book 3!
 
Many Adventures,
