I read this book after hearing its reputation nowadays. This story by Jeff Kinney gives us a lot to laugh about. The main character Greg is a weak middle school student who is most often trying not to get embarassed at school. He has a friend named Rowley who is also involved in Gregs regular activities.
There are lot of funny incidents. Through this book, Jeff Kinney goes through the mind of a typical middle school student and the important things associated with such a kid. It can be enjoyed by young and old alike. The story is not that great but the funny parts and the realistic explanation compensated for that.
