Diary of a Wimpy Kid the Ugly Truth by Jeff Kinney is about a kid in 8th grade named Greg Heffley. He is in big trouble because if you have read the other books then you know that he and his best friend still have not gotten back together. I liked this book because it is funny and humorous in it’s own way. I would recommend this book to kids ages 8-15 and kids who like funny books.

A gripping story with funny pictures and bits. It shows how we can do our diaries (although we do not have diaries that long. People of all ages should read this book and encourages people to use diaries themselves. I thinks it is great.

I read 1-10 plus so awesome 😄😄😄
