Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Last Straw by Jeff Kinney
It’s New Year’s Day, and since Greg Heffley is “already pretty much one of the best” people he knows, he resolves to help the less than perfect people in his life improve themselves. So begins the latest journal in Jeff Kinney’s hilarious “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” series. This latest installment documents six months (January to June) of Greg’s middle school life through diary entries and simple sketches. We follow Greg through numerous laugh-out-loud situations as he warms the bench for his soccer team, attempts to romance classmate Holly Hills, tries his hand at becoming a Boy Scout, and faces getting shipped off to military school. Fans of the series will not be disappointed, and newcomers will be able to jump right into the story without having read any of the previous books.
Kinney promises a fourth book, which he can’t publish soon enough. (jmv)
