Description
The pressure's really piling up on Greg Heffley. His mum thinks video games are turning his brain to mush, so she wants her son to put down the controller and explore his 'creative side'.
As if that's not scary enough, Halloween's just around the corner and the frights are coming at Greg from every angle. When Greg discovers a bag of gummy worms, it sparks an idea. Can he get his mum off his back by making a movie?
And will he become rich and famous in the process? Or will doubling down on this plan just double Greg's troubles?
Double Down: Diary of a Wimpy Kid (BK11) by Jeff Kinney brings thrilling adventures and humorous challenges for Greg Heffley in this captivating instalment.
