Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

A family road trip is supposed to be a lot of fun... unless, of course, you're the Heffleys. The journey starts off full of promise, then quickly takes several wrong turns. Gas station bathrooms, crazed seagulls, a fender bender, and a runaway pig - not exactly Greg Heffley's idea of a good time. But even the worst road trip can turn into an adventure - and this is one the Heffleys won't soon forget.

The Diary of a Wimpy Kid series of books, by best-selling author Jeff Kinney, charts the highs and lows of our middle school hero, Greg, as he stumbles and fumbles from childhood to teenhood via school-hood. Sometimes helped by his friends and family, often not helped by himself!

Readers love the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. The USA Today, Publishers Weekly, and Wall Street Journal all view it as a #1 New York Times bestseller. 'In the publishing world, Kinney is a rock star,' states NPR's Backseat Book Club. Diary of a Wimpy Kid is bent on world domination, according to Time magazine, and described as 'one of the most successful children's series ever published' by the Washington Post. It's a big hit with reluctant readers and anyone looking for a funny book, notes the School Library Journal.
