DIARY OF A WIMPY KID

THE UGLY TRUTH

Gregory is a kid in middle school who is trying to get popular but always fails. I think that Jeff Kidney (author) has a lot of skills in humor because he is able to write a kind of joke that everybody can laugh at. A feature the author uses is that the view is always from the front or the side. The only time he has a close up is when they show something degusting. Ex: close up on Fregly’s secret freckle. The way the author draws his character is very funny.

He usually exaggerates with the form of the face. Ex. Manny’s head is bigger than his body. All teenagers have a deformed head or a lot of freckles. Jeff Kidney has made a good job writing the book in a way everybody can understand. The diary is like if Gregory was talking to us. Gregory is always chasing this girl named Heather hills, but he never really gets far. Ex. Greg was in the church. He shook hands with heather hills. Then at home he wanted to call her and say he was the guy from the church. But Rodrick hid all the phones. The author makes Greg look real in the words but not in the pictures. The people in the book don’t talk a lot. Sometimes they only say small sentences that make us laugh.

Dear Dumb Dairy



Dear Dumb Diary is on of my favorite books to read! I love the drawings in her Diary they are so funny, and she always exudates but in the funny way.


In this book Jamie (the girl who wrights the dairy) is trying to raise money to go on a trip with her friends, aunt and uncle. And her aunt and uncle said that they could only raise money by themselves and they can’t ask money from there parents.

So they try full of stuff, they tried a lemonade stand a car wash, a baby sitters service and plenty more. Once one of her friends Isabella did something illegal and police men showed up at her house. At the end they know that they wouldn’t be able to go but another of Jamie’s friends raised money by walking kids, 5 year old kids! I was thinking maybe walking dogs, but walking kids it’s just weird. So they got to go.

I really enjoyed this book and I hope you do to!

Diary Of A Wimpy Kid 2

Rowley… In the book Greg drew images that are mostly funny and some normal. The writing genre is Bradley Hand in bold. The genre of this book is a novel in cartoons. The book cover is attracting because it looks like a diary and you can immidiately see who Rodrick is with the image.

Hahaha! This book is the kind of book that everyone laughs (laugh out loud book)! You will see what’s like to be in Greg Heffley’s life with Rodrick (older brother that’s annoying!), Manny (little brother that’s a tattle tailor.), mom that’s ok, dad that’s ok too and other family members.

This book is the New York Times number 1 bestseller. I just started reading the series and of course, I will continue reading it!This book reads like a journal and sometimes you might find some errors that make the book more realistic ex. me and The cover page was designed by Jeff Kinney and Chad W. Beckerman.

I think this book is perfect for kids that are 7 years old and up because they can understand the images and the writing. I just started reading the series and of course, I will continue reading it! The genre of this book is a novel in cartoons. Jeff Kinney (author of Diary of a Wimpy Kid series) is a wonderful author. He has humoristic ideas that will make you laugh hard! The book has no color it’s only in black and white but it looks more like a diary in black and white. The cover page was designed by Jeff Kinney and Chad W. Beckerman.


This series (Diary of a Wimpy Kid) all started when Mom bought Greg a diary but Greg just wanted a simple book with no word DIARY written on it.

Wish

Wishes. We’d like to have some everyday. What would be your first wish? Did you ever think about it? Have to admit, never thought about it. Olivia Larsen didn’t until her twin sister Violet died. Nothing can change the fact that this is the way her life is. Suddenly, she is granted one wish. The wish to get her sister back.

Usually, books about wishes seem non-realistic. Do to Alexandra Bullen’s past, she was able to reach the deepest part of the character’s self esteem, and express it through wishes, thoughts and dialogue. The sentimental adjectives that describe the present moment in the book, make us know what she wanted to offer her audience. Romantic parts, mixed with fake wishes, turn out to be more complicated then what Olivia expected. Some of what people told her was false. Which wishes were false?

A book between loss, friendship, heartbreaks, and loneliness describes pretty well a girl genre of reading. As a matter of fact, the author went in such details to make the characters seem alive. We seemed present with them. This fantasy story, mixed with real life children experiences, is a combination of an advanced reader level. Ages 12 and up could have the knowledge to infer and understand the meaning, theme and problem. The three word sentence of the ending made me cry. The words were so simple but meant a whole lot to the book. Throughout the entire journey, one event connected to the other. This is the reason why all readers have to stay concentrated to understand the events properly. I wish you can give it a five star too by reading it! Wishes can be miracles but disasters too. Wish.....Wishes.

Snowboard Duel

Imagine if you were on the top of a ski mountain .the cool wind blowing in your face.

This story made me feel like going skiing. It reminds me when I go do big air or jumps, because in the story they like jumps. There were 3 main characters: Zach, Brian or Hanna The person who told the story was the narrator was a third person . It was a fiction story and a adventure. Some can snowboard for free but then a manager comes who is Zach`s

mom. and they can’t snowboard for free. Only if you are the snowboard cross teem. But girls can’t be on the team.so Hanna race’s Zach to be on the teem.

My opinion on this story is a prity good book, because You want to keep on reading because you where so motch in the story My favorite part in the story is when they race to see if Hanna can make the snowboard cross teem. You can’t juge someone because they are different. like if they are a girl

Rangers Apprentice Review

The Lord of rain and night and his Wargals are back. He built a bridge over the fissure and the only ones that can stop him are Will, the apprentice ranger, Horace, the apprentice knight, and Evanlyn.

This book has lots of well described characters which I can easily imagine. Will, the main character is described as small and skinny while Horace is tall and strong. I like the fact that there is a little part of a chapter written when I opened the book which stopped at the most suspenseful moment, making me wonder what they meant.

One of my favourite and funniest parts is when Halt and Alyss decide to throw the Baron of Cobram Keep out of the top of the towers window and he landed in the moat. I also found the end good because it says that Halt was muttering a silent promise only he could here. It doesn’t say what the promise is so I had to guess what it is which isn’t hard to do but it is effective. The rangers (Will and Halt) make me think of me a little, because I am not very tall. In the book, It says that people imagine Halt to be 7 feet tall but he is very small. Overall, I would give this book two thumbs up.
