Every time a new Kinney book comes out, nostalgia returns—memories of all the times I read these to my older grands (who are now 18 and 23!) and all the great laughter 😂. Hilarious 🤣

If you like books that are this book, than this is the book for you. So, I was at the part where Greg has to move, because of low scores on a school wide test. But Greg doesn't want to leave, so he tries to convince his family not to. Eventually, he and Rowley say a final goodbye. But, the hot tub being lifted on a crane falls, and destroys the house. The books POV is first person POV, using I or me. This book was good, overall, bur not the best.

MissYaremcio Cole thank you for working hard on the review. I would have liked a bit more on the recommendation but overall good work. 5.5/6 3y

This book so far is pretty good, but not the best of the series. The main plot of Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Wrecking Ball is that the Greg Heffley's family get money from a dead family member, and use it to make-over their house. A theme of the book is change, as the Heffleys want to change their house, and Greg's life changes when he finds out he may move and lose his friend, Rowley. If you like the books in the series, you will like this book.

MissYaremcio Thank you for the review Cole! I haven't read this one myself! 6/6 3y

Genre: Humor

Date Started: Dec 2nd
Date Completed: Dec 5th

How I chose this book: I just like to read these books because they keep you interested and it's a continuation of the series.

About the book: The book is about the Heffleys getting money from a relative that past away so they do some home renovations, which was a disaster. So instead they wanted to move but was having troubles getting people to take it off there hands.

Greg Heffley and Rowley Jefferson are both middle school students and best friends. Without each other they may not have survived school this far. Faced with living in different neighbourhoods, they decide to go on as many adventures as they can. Snowball fights in June and plotting to become famous are just some of the ideas they have....which never seem to end well! If you like books filled with humour then this book is for you.

MissYaremcio Great review Hayden! I am impressed with your hard work! 5y

Today The Kid had the opportunity to see #JeffKinney do a live show about his new book, was able to chat with him (briefly), take a pic, and have his copy of Wrecking Ball personalized. Jeff Kinney is an absolute sweetheart who deserves all of the good things that have come to him. It was wonderful to see so many kids in one place, celebrating their love of reading. I do hope Kinney knows the part he plays in that magic. Well done, sir. #WimpyKid
