Proffesional Reviews
Goodreads.com: "Life was better in the old days. Or was it? That's the question Greg Heffley is asking as his town voluntarily unplugs and goes electronics-free. But modern life has its conveniences, and Greg isn't cut out for an old-fashioned world. With tension building inside and outside the Heffley home, will Greg find a way to survive?"--
Commensensemedia: Parents need to know that Old School is the 10th book in the bestselling Wimpy Kid series by Jeff Kinney This time Wimpy Kid Greg gets into all-new shenanigans including hitching a ride with his grandpa to the hardware store and going the wrong way down the highway. Plus, in a tumble, one kid's tooth gets lodged in another kid's forehead. And kids at a camp give themselves the willies with a tale about a crazed farmer in the woods. They imagine him and zombies coming out of the camp toilet. Potty humor is pretty mild, with some modestly drawn nakedness: Grandpa in undies and a robe, baby brother Manny running around pants-less, Greg showing his rear end getting out of a pool. One image shows a teen smoking outside an ice-cream place. Greg is full of wrong-headed decisions, as usual -- it's a big part of the humor. That’s why parents will appreciate Greg's always-well-meaning mom who, this time, tries to get the whole town to go screen-free for a weekend and clean up the local park.
