* This is my son’s review for ’Diary of a Wimpy Kid # 2: Rodrick Rules.’

(1) About this book.
     Jeff Kinney, 217 pages, Realistic fiction

(2) When and where the story takes place. Also choose one important character from this book.
     This story takes place in a middle school. Manny is a very important character. He is Greg’s 3 years elder brother. Greg really hates him, but Rodrick doesn’t care. Other people think that he is just adorable. However, Greg Heffley knows the truth.

(3) Briefly summarize the main events of the story.
     In the beginning of the story, dad makes Greg go on the swim team. But Greg tried to persuade him to make him go on the water jazz, instead. Then when he got home, he played video games and then the thing did not start. He opened the disk driver and pulled out a chocolate chip cookie. In the middle of the story, Rodrick had a party while mom and dad are going. After the party was over, Greg helped Rodrick clean. In the end of the story, Rodrick makes a video of his ban and now everyone knows.

(4) On a scale of one to five, how would I compare this book to others I have read?
     It’s ’4.’ I would recommend this book for people who want a better future.
