Diary Of A Wimpy Kid chronicles the life of Greg Heffley on his first year in middle school. Unlike any other lead, Greg is no hero. He actually has things upside down when it comes to dealing with kids in his school and family. He’s not so bad, just the usual type that’s trying to figure out things by himself. Any kid can easily end up clueless being a middle child and stuck in school with students who are taller, meaner, and already shaving. He loosely recalls his days with short description on how he saw it unfold, using his journal via narration and caricatures. With a deadpan humour that is reminiscent of our younger years, it allows us to appreciate our goofiness back in the days. To some extent, we’ll be able to relate to the narrator, who is both oblivious and hilarious.
One thing’s for sure though, this is a good book that’s relaxed and unpretentious.It somehow reminds me the hilarity of being a kid and how rad we thought we were.
