"After reading it, I have come to a realization that in many ways I would love to be an adolescent boy - bullying others, playing tricks, being lazy and crude :) The book is not just another Children's book .The book has a lot more to offer - stick - figure drawings, epistolary style of writing AND intelligent humor to tell a story about three siblings where the middle one gets sandwiched and bullied all the times...fun way of telling the bonding and the fights and growing up! Its descriptive, its funny. Highly recommended for those who want to giggle !"

    " I'm not a big Greg Heffley fan. I'm more of a Rowley person. And I don't think Greg's wimpy at all. For me, he's just plain mean and some kid who just wants to be famous. Haha. I don't know. I just don't like him. "
