Diary of a Wimpy Kid is a good book. The main character’s name is Greg. He keeps a diary and writes about important events in his life.  Some important events include his thoughts on Halloween, Christmas, and New Year’s Day resolutions.

Greg had a bad Halloween. His younger brother, Manny, had to go trick or treating with Greg and his best friend, Rowley. Now he couldn’t go to as many houses. Halfway through the night, his dad went home with Manny. After his dad left, some teenagers in the back of a truck started chasing them. Greg and Rowley tried to hide from them. They had to sneak back home. When he got home, his Dad splashed them with water and all the candy was soaked.

Greg’s Christmas was just as bad as Halloween. This Christmas Manny got everything he wanted. Greg did not get the Twisted Wizard video game and that was the one thing he wanted. Rowley got Twisted Wizard for Christmas. Rowley got Greg a big wheeler.

New Year’s Eve for Greg was a little better. His New Year’s resolution was to help people be a better person, but he did not help anyone. Greg’s dad’s resolution was to go on a diet, but Greg caught him in the garage eating brownies. His mom’s resolution was to go to the gym, but  she watched TV all day instead.

If you ever get stuck on an island, I hope you have a water purifier, a pocket knife, and salt. The water purifier would help you get clean water from the ocean. You need water to live! You will also need a pocket knife because you can use it to make spears, animal traps, and shelter. The last thing you need is salt. Salt is important meat to make it last longer. You need water, food, and shelter to survive. These three things will help you live if you are ever shipwrecked.

  In the Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Greg and Rowley are the main characters.  Greg likes to play video games.  Greg has a journal that he writes in. It is titled diary because his mom got it for him. He said not to get one that was called a diary but she did it anyway. Greg writes so when he is famous and people question him he could just give them the book and they will know about him.

Rowley likes video games too. Rowley and Greg are best friends. But sometimes Rowley just does not listen. For example, Greg told him to wear regular clothes to the haunted house and he wore a Superman costume instead. 

   Greg and Rowley are middle schoolers so they are a little older than me. I think I relate more to Rowley because he goes with the flow. Rowley does not have to be the center of attention. I do not relate as much to Greg because he hates being outside and doing sports.  I really like being outside and playing lacrosse, soccer, swimming, basketball, and skateboarding.  

In STAT  the boys play a game against the bullies. The bullies  are hogging the court and also trashing the court. They’re trashing the court by leaving trash all over the court.  The bullies were hurting the boys not calling fouls. The boys lost the game.

 The next day the boy decided to play them again but this time they have a plan. There plan is to gather a bunch of people to play in the game. The plan worked they won the game. And the deal was the winner gets the court.

STAT has 3 main characters,Amar’e, Deuce, and Mike. Amar’e  likes to skateboard. He also likes to play basketball with his friends. Amar’e is a very tall 11 year old. Amar’e has an older brother named Junior. Amar’e also likes to play baseball with his friends.

Amar’e has two friends named Deuce and Mike. Both friends like to play basketball. Deuce is very fast but short.  Mike is tall but not as tall as Amar’e but he is taller than Deuce. All three friends like to play baseball. At one point in the book the boys had to face a bully. The bully was huge  and he did not let them play basketball on the court. 

I have not finished the book. I predict that they will have a challenge to find out who will get to play on the court. I can’t wait to find out what happens.
