Diary of a wimpy kid last straw

Diary of a Wimpy Kid
By; Jeff Kinney
217 pages
Reviewed by; Thomas Brown



Once again Greg Heffley meanders through half a semester of middle school and captures his thoughts in a journal. Roderick, his older brother is still a bully; moving, his younger brother is still spoiled and Rowley, his best friend, is someone Greg continues to use. A new character is Holly Hills. Greg pursues her- trying to talk with her, to ask her to skate and to call her on the phone- but to no avail.

Greg doesn't feel as though he was, given good Christmas gifts, only books and clothes. When he is given a basketball hoop laundry hamper, his mother decides that he can start doing his own laundry. Greg is suddenly glad he received so many clothes for Christmas. He hopes his expanded wardrobe can get him through the second half of the school year without him having to do a load of laundry.
