Diary of a Wimpy Kid

"Hard Luck"

Jeff Kinney is the author to the classic collection "Diary of a Wimpy Kid". Jeff Kinney so far has written ten books and is one of the best international sellers. Over the half-term I chose to read "Hard Luck".

In this book, Greg who is the Wimpy Kid looses his best friend called Rowley. Rowley abandoned Greg over a girl called Abigail which destroyed thier friendship. As a result of their torn friendship, Greg goes hunting in search of a new friend in the whole year group.

The school had a button that could help the children find friends. When the button is pushed the electrical signal is enabled for anyone who cathces sight of the beaming light. The person will come towards the light to see whether they want to be friends.The first thought that ran across Greg's mind was to push the magical button and see if anyone would gladly be his friend. However, Greg did not know that finding a friend was not going to be easy. Instead of children coming towards the light, a teacher with a huge furry moustache was curious to see if he could be friends with Greg.

The teacher was not popular amongst the Greg's year group, which made Greg think twice about befriending the teacher. Rowley is a fat, chubby young boy. Rowley is not that popular either but has been Greg's friend as long as they can remember. This is why it was sad for them both to break up and find new friends. Abigail has many friends, but instead of playing with them she played with Rowley from then.

At lunch,Rowley was hanging out at the boys table. Abigail came and sat at the boys table which made all the boys feel awkward. The boys made Abigail and Rowley move to the couples table because they got annoyed. They were on the couples table alone because all the others couldn't stand watching Abigail feed Rowley his pudding.Would you like if it was you watching?

Meanwhile Greg was still trying to find a new friend but this friend was a character who was weird and a little creepy. Have you guessed who it is? It's FREGLEY but Fregley wasn't that weird for while it was going good for Greg. At the end Greg was wondering if in the school photo Abigail and Rowley will always be together.
