Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Meltdown - Book Review

What will Greg Heffley do when it's a snow day? He'll have a neighbourhood snow battle, that's right.

Greg Heffley lives on Surrey Street and it's quite different from your average neighbourhood. On Surrey Street, you're either a hill kid or a non-hill kid. Greg and the hill kids can't stand the non-hill kids. In the summer the kids at the bottom never let the hill kids play down there. But in the winter the tables are turned. The hill is amazing for sledding and all the non-hill kids want in.

If you really want to enjoy and understand this book you have to know your Wimpy. In this book, there are a lot of callbacks to things that happen in previous books. So, to understand this book read a couple of the older Wimpy Kid books. 

So I really loved this book. In fact, I really love the entire series. I would recommend this book to ages 10-12. Something I would love to see is this book in movie form.  There are many Diary of a Wimpy Kid movies. If this movie is done well it could be AMAZING!

  1. I liked how you gave a little sneak peak based on the current book and some of the previous books in the series. Next time just try to add what was your favorite part, that ratings, etc. For more look at the success criteria

Return to The Isle of The Lost - Book Review

On an island far away live the evilest villains on the planet. To make sure magic doesn't reach the island an invisible dome was built over the island. Maleficent, Jafar, The Evil Queen and Cruella de Vil are raising the most rotten villains when those villains get an invitation to attend a school outside the island they accept the invitation. Those same rotten villains choose the side of good. When Maleficent broke open the dome and got out it was up to Mal, Evie, Jay and Carlos to stop her. Mal defeated Maleficent by transforming her into a lizard. Life in Auradon is terrific, after defeating her mother Mal was considered a hero. The hero sat in the library studying as her mother was harmlessly sitting behind closed doors. All of a sudden the floor begins to shake, as it does quite often. Mal cliches the table to help herself from falling. Once the earthquake had stopped Mal resumed her studies. Buzz! Her phone rings as she gets a message. You must return to the Isle of the...

Dog Man: Lord of the Fleas - Book Review

We'll get to the root of Petey's problems. Why he's the villain, in every Dog Man book. Well, this time it's different. Petey's the good guy. We'll also meet his childhood friends, who want their revenge with a giant Robo-Brontosaurus. And Petey will fight back with the power of knock-knock jokes, in Flip-O-Rama. Will the power of good arise or will Petey stay his rotten old self?  This book is very funny. Something I always enjoy about Dog Man books is Lil Petey (he's my favourite character). He always does this thing where he says "why" after everything. Here's an example from the book.  Lil Petey is never mad or angry. He is always happy and innocent. He makes many jokes that are always HILARIOUS!   I also really love Flip-O-Rama scenes,  Dav Pilkey always has Flip-O-Rama's in his books. Flip-O-Rama is when you flip a page very quickly and it looks like it is animated. I think that anyone, any age would laugh and learn some...
