I give this book an A-. This is the sequal to Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
I personally loved what Jeff Kinney (author) did in book 2. This book covered months September-December of year 2. I loved that fact because Jeff was able to go deeper into each month unlike the first book. In book 1 the reader felt rushed because he only gave each month 20-40 pages max. In this book he stretched out each month and the reader got a better feel as the time of the year moved along.
There was also a better plot. The whole book Greg (main character) hints at a huge bad event that happened over his summer vacation and at the end of the book we find out what the horrible event was which created a fun rising action throughout the book.
A flaw I noticed is that Halloween and Christmas weren't in this book like they were in the first book which was a let-down.
OPINION CENTER
Re-Read? Yes
My opinion: Good and better than the first but lacked some great monthly moments (Halloween and Christmas wasn't included)
Age range opinion: 10-18
