About the book
Greg Heffley is a middle-schooler who records his everyday life in an illustrated diary, though he firmly calls it a journal. Narrating in his own voice, he describes school, home and friendship with a self-assured but misguided outlook. His good-natured best friend Rowley is often at his side. At home, Greg deals with a rude older brother who likes to play tricks, a spoiled younger brother who tattles, a mother who embarrasses him, and a father who wants him to take up sports and become a man.
