Dairy of a Wimpy Kid : The Ugly Truth Written by: Jeff Kinney Fiction 2010
The Setting The main settings are Greg’s house and at Greg’s school. Greg’s house is a nice and fancy house that’s decorated simply. Greg’s school is an old looking middle school with a horrible play ground.
Main Characters • Greg Heffley- Greg is a boy in middle school who isn’t the most popular person. He’s good-natured, easygoing, and sometimes selfish. He’s not strong at all. In fact he is kind of a twig. • Rowley Jefferson- Rowley is a slightly immature kid who has protective parents. He is Greg’s Ex-best friend. Rowley is a funny looking guy. He’s got a huge mouth and two buck teeth sticking out of it.
The Problem The biggest problem in this book is the fact that Greg and Rowley had a “BIG” fight and they are now not best friends anymore. Rowley already has a replacement friend named “Cool Brian”. It’s kind of like a big brother business. Greg’s trying , but failing to find a new best friend.
Problem Solution Since Greg and Rowley have been separated for a while, Greg is kind of lonely. So, Greg decides to make his first move and try to mend his friendship with his Ex- best friend Rowley. They became best friends again.
My Opinion I think this book is a very funny book to read. The reason I chose this book is because I love the Diary of a Wimpy kid series, they’re hilarious. I can’t stop laughing when I’m reading it!
