Diary of a Wimpy Kid; Rodrick Rules
By Jeff Kinney
The World around you
The book Diary of a Wimpy kid is based on some things that happened in the Authors' life, like when Greg is on the swim team. Well, the same thing happened in Jeff's life when he was a kid. Also, Jeff had an annoying brother named Patrick, just like Greg has Manny! In 5th grade, Jeff's teacher told him to pay attention to the world around him, and he did just that!
