My oldest daughter is in the third grade, and she loves this series. She is going to claim this book as soon as she gets home from school, so I took some time to read it before then.There is a lot going on in this book. The pet pig (from the last book) seems to have more privileges than Greg, Grandpa moves in with the Heffleys, Rodrick gets a job at the ice cream parlor, and a good chunk of the book is devoted to Greg’s weeklong school trip to an old fashioned farm.As with the other books in the series, the book appears to have been written on notebook paper. The font looks like a child’s handwriting, and the book is filled with funny stick figure illustrations. This is definitely part of what makes the Wimpy Kid books such a fun series. My oldest daughter loves to read and her fluency is advanced, but she is reluctant to read “novels” because she doesn’t like that they don’t have pictures. Books like these are wonderful for children like my daughter, as well as reluctant readers.Of course, the biggest draw to this book- and the series as a whole- is the humor. Sometimes the series gets a bad rap because the humor tends to be a little immature, but that doesn’t mean that it’s not funny. I found myself smiling as I read through this book, and Greg’s vision of the future- telling a drone that he didn’t want mayonnaise on his burger- had me laughing out loud. And Greg is downright insightful when he says that older people’s recollections of the “good old days” are not always as accurate as they think.I would recommend Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Old School. This is an immensely popular series. Greg Heffley is ultimately a good kid. He doesn’t always make the right decisions, but there is usually a consequence as a result. Greg’s flaws are what make him easy to relate to, and to empathize with. After all, making mistakes is part of growing up. Greg might be stuck in middle school forever, but that just means that we can continue to appreciate his experiences during those awkward years between childhood and adolescence.

Fun Time with No Electronic Devices (Except Dad's Webcam) By Bassocantor DIARY OF A WIMPY KID: OLD SCHOOL is book number 10 in this popular series (see the entire list at the end of this reivew.) If this is your first forray into the imaginative world of Jeff Kinney, you are in for a treat. The creator of these loony books continues his insightful wit, accompanied by cutting edge (if not exactly award-winning) artwork. I've noted before that the artwork reminds me a little of a Gary Larson cartoon mixed up with some "Dilbert" cartoons from Scott Adams.If you remember where we left Greg Heffley the last time we saw him, the Heffley's vacation has taken a bad turn, complete with birds flying inside their car. In this installment, mom has decided that it's time to get rid of all electronic devices. Being a good social activist, Mom's getting the town to sign a petition. After all, she assumes, things were so much better back in the old days. To prove it, the whole family must now relive those days, bereft of all modern electronics and conveniences. Of course, this requires Gregory to visit an old-fashioned, rustic camp, complete with non-working toilets. He and his gang of ner-do-well campers make an ill-fated raid on the girl's cabin to get some deodorant, with poor results. Dad is called in to be an "emergency chaperone." Later, his buddies have to tear-down their cabin and use it for firewood.With her "Back to the Good Ole Days" kick, Mom is a bit of a hypocrite, however. She uses a "Pet Tracker" app to keep track of the disobedient Gregory, who ends up running from a wild gang of Girl Scouts. It turns out that Dad has also installed a "Web Cam" in the house to watch Gregory's (and Grandpa's) misdeeds.**HELP ME FIGURE OUT THIS ARTWORK**On page 2, in the illustration of Gregory in the bathtub, thinking of days of old, there are a bunch of neighbors gathered at the window, looking in. I can't figure out what that container below the window is. Is that an ICE CHEST? If you know, please post a comment.Minor Nit: In the Kindle edition that I purchased, the formatting works just fine. The illustrations all presented correctly, as did the text formatting, columns, etc. The only gripe I have is that the Table of Contents in the Kindle version is very skimpy--the TOC just lists page numbers; I could not navigate to different chapters.All in all, DIARY OF A WIMPY KID: OLD SCHOOL is a hilarious, fun read. Those "Good ole days" weren't really so great after all, were they? The artwork, in conjunction with the text, is really excellent, and adds a lot to the story. Perhaps my favorite illustration is on page 109, of the "PET TRACKER" that mom uses to find her son.For your reference, here are the other books in the "Wimpy Kid" series:Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Book 1Rodrick Rules (Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Book 2)Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Last Straw (Book 3)Dog Days (Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Book 4)The Ugly Truth (Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Book 5)Cabin Fever (Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Book 6)The Third Wheel (Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Book 7)Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Hard Luck, Book 8Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul
