The main idea is that there is a middle school prom and that Greg asks a girl out. He asks Rowley's dad to pretend he is a limo driver. They do not have a limo so they have to use a car instead. Rowley has the chicken pox so Greg tries to get away from Rowley as much as possible.

I liked that Greg has to take the girl to a restaurant before they go to the prom. I also like that the father of the girl he was taking is a police man.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Cabin Fever






Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Cabin Fever
by Jeff Kinney

Genre: Humor
Where can you find this book? Winship School Library

What is the main idea?
The main idea is how everything went wrong for Greg. He had lots of bad luck. An example of something that went wrong was that Rowley found a girlfriend and he just never talked to Greg again and Greg had no friends. His enemy, which was one of his relatives, came to visit and he was aggravated. Then the mingos ran after him. If you want to find out who the mingos are, you should read this book.

What did you like about this book?
I liked this book because Greg had lots of bad luck and I felt bad for him but he never gave up. An example of how Greg didn't give up is when Rowley got a girlfriend and left Greg alone, but Greg made new friends. An example of how I felt bad for Greg is when Rowley left him alone and Greg was sad but he said "instead of being sad I will just make new friends." And that is why I enjoyed reading this book!
