Diary of an Awesome Friendly Kid: Rowley Jefferson's Journal Award-winning author/illustrator

We have chosen Diary of an Awesome Friendly Kid as our XD Book of the Month for May because it is a hugely appealing book that will get both reluctant and keen readers turning the pages. Jeff Kinney’s Diary of a Wimpy Kid series has long been an absolute kid favourite, full of imaginative cartoons and cheeky humour known to hook readers in for life. Now the Wimpy Kid’s best friend, Rowley, is finally telling his unheard story, and adding his personal take on Greg’s life story, too. After all, Greg will be rich and famous one day, and everyone will want to know all about him. But Greg isn’t at all happy with the results! Told with Jeff Kinney’s hallmark wit and visual flair, this is an insightful look at what it means to be a writer and tell stories from differing perspectives. It is also a funny tale of friendship starring a much-loved side character. One to get every kid wanting to read more and write more!

Also available in class packs of six and 30 copies.
