Being a kid can really stink. And no one knows this better than Greg Heffley, who finds himself thrust into middle school, where undersized weaklings share the hallways with kids who are taller, meaner, and already shaving. In Diary of a Wimpy Kid, author and illustrator Jeff Kinney introduces us to an unlikely hero. As Greg says in his diary: Just don't expect me to be all "Dear Diary" this and "Dear Diary" that. Luckily for us, what Greg Heffley says he won’t do and what he actually does are two very different things.

As to other reviewer’s complaints for ‘boring’ narration (by Roald Dahl, author of the books himself) - this is subtle & clever storytelling with many puns & brilliant insights into contemporary society (consider the Mike Teevee poem regarding our limited attention spans;)
The stories are unabridged & told with adequate expression. Very entertaining for older readers. Best recommended for kids used to listening to ‘more complex’ audiobooks.
