17 posts | 37 read | 14 to read
Greg Heffley and his family are getting out of town. With the cold weather and the stress of the approaching holiday season, the Heffleys decide to escape to a tropical island resort for some much needed rest and relaxation. A few days in paradise should do wonders for Greg and his frazzled family. But the Heffleys soon discover that paradise isn't everything it's cracked up to be. Sunburn, stomach troubles, and venomous critters all threaten to ruin the family's vacation. Can their trip be saved, or will this island getaway end in disaster?

This is a great, classic and quick read. Don‘t have much to write about it. It took me longer than it should have because i‘ve been reading articles.

It‘s one cold Christmas for the heffley family so they head to a tropical resort to escape from the cold weather to Relax greg is so excited to get out of the cold weather but when they get their their are grumpy family‘s and crying children nothing is going right for Greg. If you like books that are exiting and a quick read this is a book you should read the genre is fiction I would rate this book 7.5/10

Cfischbuch Watch your capitalization and punctuation. It will make your reviews more readable. 5y
MissYaremcio Riley, thank you for the review. Genre isn't just fiction, but also has another specifier. 5y

This book was ok. It is how greg and his family go on a vacation during Christmas

MrsBabki Do the stories ever get repetitive and boring? What keeps bringing you back? 6y
SamHarry @MrsBabki the books do have some boring parts but what brings me back is that there is a different situation that Greg is going through, so while all of the books are different they somewhat have the same idea 6y
MrsBabki Thanks kiddo! That makes sense! Maybe I can convince my boy to take them on! 6y

I tried, I really did! I just couldn't care for Greg or anyone in the book for that matter. I'm sorry but it wasn't my cup of tea!

Choosing books to take with me to Holland is hard. I need a bit of variety and selection as I‘m a mood reader. What do you think? Are these good picks for a week-long seaside escape? 😊

Redwritinghood I think anything would be good for a weekend at the seaside! Those all look like great choices. 6y
Cathythoughts Great !! Wilkie Collins 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 6y

Not the kind of book I usually read but they are so funny! My little brother has all of them and since the first book we always both read them and enjoy them and find related things to our family 😂 I'm spending a weekend with my family right now. So this was the perfect time to catch up on the newest book.

OrangeMooseReads @shendrix413 I decided a few years ago that Santa wasn‘t going to get the glory so he gives the clothes and other practical things 7y
shendrix413 @OrangeMooseReads Nice! I think he's giving the family some board games and some chocolate and coloring books in the stocking. I'm taking back Christmas too! 😂 7y
OrangeMooseReads @shendrix413 those are good Santa gifts 👍🏼 7y

When Ben learned to read and fell in love with it, I warned everyone around me that I did not want to ever hear anyone say to him, "Boys don't read." This year, he's read 184 books so far and is writing his own book blog. ? #litsykids #boysread

BookMaven407 That is awesome! 👏👏🙌🙌 7y

Another great installment to The Diary of a Wimpy Kid series! Greg and his family going on a family getaway, what could possibly go wrong?? This was such an enjoyable read, I loved it and I would recommend this book to any kid or adult. It‘s a light and fast read with comical moments, enough to keep you rolling with laughter! 5/5 stars!
