Sooo Gooood!!!!,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Diary of a Wimpy Kid #2 - Rodrick Rules (Hardcover)
This book is soooooo goooood!!!!! I wasn't a big reader until I got a hold of the Wimpy Kid Diary. It is so funny I couldn't stop reading until I finished it. I borrowed it to a friend of mine and the loved it too. The Diary of a Wimpy Kid is passed around from one fiend to another. Many of our jokes are now about Wimpy Kids... Interesting though that my sister wasn't that impressed with it. She much more prefers the series of Why Some Cats are Rascals, Book 2. I think Wimpy Kid is more for boys than girls.

Is that GREAT or what?,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Diary of a Wimpy Kid #2 - Rodrick Rules (Hardcover)
I think Jeff Kinney hit the BullsEye with the Diary of a Wimpy Kid. I first read some of it at the internet. However it did not take me long to figure out that I had to have a hard copy of this book. Once I got it, I read it from start to finish and was unable to put it down until the end. It is THAT hilarious! The writing by itself is good and the cartoons make all that even better! And I am not the only one to love it. Since the time I got it, my book is being borrowed again and again by all my friends. In fact, I haven't seen it myself for long. It is just being passed from one friend to another. And we are all waiting for the next book in the Wimpy Kid series. I don't have an older brother. But although Greg seems to be complaining a lot about his brother Roderick, I wish I could get all this kind of troubles that Greg gets with Roderick. Life would be that much more interesting!!!!Another series that we all cannot get enough of is Why Some Cats are Rascals, Book 3. We are all looking forward to book 4 in the series, It is actually a diary of a naughty cat, believe or not.

Anyone Whose Life Was "Ruined" by An Older Brother Must Read Rodrick Rules,
By Donald Mitchell "Jesus Loves You!" (Thanks for Providing My Reviews over 112,000 Helpful Votes Globally) - See all my reviews (TOP 10 REVIEWER) (#1 HALL OF FAME)
This review is from: Diary of a Wimpy Kid #2 - Rodrick Rules (Hardcover)
Diary of a Wimpy Kid was a breakout success in bringing kid humor into classic situations and an appealing format. One of my concerns about reading Rodrick Rules was whether there would be enough classic kid problems to fill another book with side-splitting laughter. Well, some of the best gags are gone but some pretty good ones are left.Diary of a Wimpy Kid featured humor built from not wanting to touch a piece of rotten cheese. There's no exact equivalent that's as funny Rodrick Rules, but the continuing saga of being dominated by an obnoxious older brother certainly will evoke memories and laughs among those who were a younger brother or the parent of two or more boys. As in most families, both boys have something they can use to blackmail the other. But Rodrick is much better than Greg at fighting for dominance. What Rodrick has on Greg is truly funny, the sort of thing that would deeply embarrass any middle school boy. There's lots of contact between the two boys because their parents want to bring them together. I could relate to the sorts of things I tried to use to create peace between two teenage boys . . . that didn't work. One of the on-going gags involves Rodrick's band and his parents fear of where this could all lead. Any family that's ever had a garage or basement band will relate to this part of the book. I was also amused to see the book address that perpetual middle school challenge . . . how to pass without doing any work. This is great fun, just not as side-splitting as Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
