Book 1 of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series - from #1 international bestselling author Jeff Kinney, read by Dan Russell.

Greg Heffley finds himself thrust into a new year and a new school where undersize weaklings share the corridors with kids who are taller, meaner and already shaving.

Desperate to prove his new found maturity, which only going up a grade can bring, Greg is happy to have his not-quite-so-cool sidekick, Rowley, along for the ride. But when Rowley's star starts to rise, Greg tries to use his best friend's popularity to his own advantage. Recorded in his diary with comic pictures and his very own words, this test of Greg and Rowley's friendship unfolds with hilarious results.

All year my son who has now been diagnosed as dyslexic has struggled to read this book. How great was his excitement to be introduced to audible books and getting to read Diary of a Wimpy Kid. He spent the last 4 days doing nothing but following reading this book. He just finished it, so proud of himself and happy that he made it to the end!

Very entertaining
