The Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Deep End by Jeff Kinney
Penguin, 2020. ISBN: 9780143796084.
Highly recommended. This was read and reviewed by my 10 year old
son, who has read most of the others from this series and really
enjoys them:
First of all I thought this book was good, because it was funny and
a good story.
The story is about the family and they go on a holiday, and they
travel to lots of places. While they are at a caravan park lots of
bad things happen. One of the bad things is when the bridge to get
out of the caravan park is struck by lightning they can't get out.
Everyone gets panicked and they buy everything . . . this is very
familiar to me because of Covid-19. At the end Manny saves the day
as he drives the van to fix the bridge and let everyone out!
I would recommend this book to people who have read any of the other
Diary of a Wimpy Kid books. I giggled a lot as the pictures are
hilarious, they add to the story and with some parts of the story
you wouldn't understand the story without the pictures.
I give it 4.5 starts out of 5 - I would have given it 5 stars if
there were even more funny pictures.
I think his review says it all. This book was real hit with a 10
year old, and I also think this book would really suit readers who
need a bit of extra encouragement. The funny illustrations are a
real draw card and keep in line with all the others in the series. A
great addition to the series, and highly recommended!
