Right now i am on page 46. and in betten the beginning and now i think theres a lot of interyersing things. hi now I am round page a hundred. in this book it talks about not kool things. I think that's wrid to have in a book.

It's a funny story. My friends all- like this book. Greg had so- many thinking! The book is for more than 9 years old kid.

ha HA ha HA! so amazing!i have all the books except rodrick rules. but i've read it, my friend let me borrow it

banana banana

I like the book even the book because they didnt cook the dinner right and at the end of the book too.

the book rocks but the snow and blizzard is only at the end i thought it would be the main part

This is a fabulous series this book was great but I agree not one of the best, in the series, if you love this series read the Dork Diaries but I personally think that it should be read by girls.

a great book but not the best in the series. i think it was very funny! i think it was the second funniest book in the series.

I like this book because it is funny and the pictures are to my favorite part is the part when they have to take care of eggs and he brings in a scrambled egg and how the girls made theirs all fancy plus Rowley's egg is so funny ! :) :)

this book is about a boy named Greg,H,Hufley and his friend Rowley who Greg had a big fight with.so hes kinda bumed about that.so i made my mom buy me that book and i fell in love with it. ROCK ON GREG!

this book is about Greg in summer vacation and he gets a fake phone called, "the Ladybug" which is my favorite part. the "Ladybug" only lets you call the police, and home. What more do you need a phone for?
