Penguin Random House Diary Of A Wimpy Kid 2 By Rodrick Rules Jeff Kinney 1 Pc

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules is a sequel to the colossal hit Diary of a Wimpy Kid. The story revolves around an 8th grader, Gregory Heffley, who is facing some problems which usually are not faced by a middle-school child. The new academic year has just started at school. Greg, in his journal, begins by focusing on how disastrous his summer vacations went. Greg is a kid who is considered a recluse by his peers due to the “cheese touch.” Although he tries to forget past things as a new and fresh academic year is about to start, things do not go down well with him as his own brother, Rodrick Heffley, knows one of Greg’s dirty secrets. As an 8th grader, Greg has to face many situations like wooing girls, prospering in the talent hunt being conducted by the school, and the most important of them all, hiding his secret. Greg, however, is successful in passing the “cheese touch” to Jeremy Pindle. In his journal, Greg also mentions his best school buddy, Rowley Jefferson, who had gone to South America during the summer vacations. There is also a mention of how Greg’s mother has been struggling to make Greg and his brother Rodrick behave like other usual brothers. But such usual brotherly behaviour is not acceptable to Greg because Rodrick has the leverage of knowing Greg’s dirty secret and, resultantly, treats Greg at his own wish and will. All of the above is beautifully narrated by the author in an entertaining manner, with lots of amusing life events discussed in the book. The author has tried to go deep into almost every single facet that a middle-school kid faces in his everyday life. The narration is given in a humorous manner.
