Fun read. An emotional rollercoaster, plus Manny's got some admirable carpentry skills.

I don't know why I love these books so much. Its #14 in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid Series.

This book has to do with the Heffley's selling their house and buying a new one, which is always an adventure. Add in the perspective of Greg who is lazy and has dreams of grandeur and you get a cute and funny story, especially with the reasonings and justifications Greg comes up with.

One more to go and then start his friend's diary.

Never gets old

Even as I get older I still enjoy these books. It was very funny and enjoyable to read as all of the books in the series.

When your children recommend books to you, you read them. My youngest took great care in asking me questions to pick the right book from the series for me. They asked me what I was into, and what type of books I liked to read, and picked this one with such care I diligently read it at night next to them.

One of my reading goals this year has been to read more books that my kids are reading. After years of curating their books, it's super fun they're turning the tables on me.
