"Diary of a Wimpy Kid" sets out to recount what real life is like for young boys, which it does in many ways, but misses every opportunity to present morality lessons for the reader. The day-to-day actions and thoughts of the main character are not presented as wrong or right, but as the-way-it-is, which does a disservice to young readers and parents searching for books that their kids will want to read. While adults may laugh out loud at some of the antics in this book, kids may be left with the impression that calling other kids "morons" is an appropriate attitude and reasonable form of expression. Bullying younger kids is presented as a "right-of-age" rather than an act to be discouraged.
I suppose with TV and movies pushing the envelope of good manners, "children's literature" will naturally follow. This book does not appeal to the better angels in us, but appeals to the lowest common denominator.
Anyone searching for books to enrapture their young boys should pick up the works of Mark Twain. Those stories appeal to the mischievous side of boys while clearly demonstrating right and wrong behavior. They also tackle social issues still relevant today.
My 9 year old son can't put this book down! November 26, 2008
My son asked for this book when some of his friends had it in class. (He never asks for books) Since he's had it, he has brought it to school to read, he turned off the TV to read (and even turned off the play station) I have not read much of this book, but just the fact he can't put it down, must mean it's funny and kid friendly.
diary of a wimpy kid November 19, 2008
Diary of a wimpy kid was the best book I have ever read in my life! it is great! and it is perfect, with not one thing wrong with it I chose it as the best book I have ever read !woo hoo!
Fun to read November 19, 2008
I got this for my 8yr old who mostly likes to read scary stories like Goosebumps. He finished the book in one and a half day and kept coming to me to read me the funniest parts. Just about anytime I saw him reading this book he had a smile on his face and now he can't wait to read the second book in series. I read some of it too and it is so much fun.
This is the first time ever he preferred to read a book than to play video games...shocking!
From J. Kaye's Book Blog November 19, 2008
This book is about Greg Heffley's journal. The reason he has a journal is to answer people's questions when he becomes famous. The book doesn't say how he'll become famous, but he is confident that it will happen. Much of his journal is about the pranks his older brother pulls on him, how his parents embarrass him and his school mishaps.
My 11 y/o said, "I thought this was a hilarious book. It kept me laughing."
