Book Review
Diary of a Wimpy Kid (The Third Wheel)
3/5 stars
A parent's review
*******

The last of these books that I read was "Diper  Överlöde," and I'd have to say it was better than this one.

There was nothing bad, or not kosher in this book.

But, it is what a lot of these Jeff Kinney books are which is: a series of mishaps that happened to the unluckiest kid in the world.

Something like this would probably be very funny to kids.

But, for parents who are pre-reading the book to make sure there is nothing "unkosher," it makes the book somewhat of a slog.

Diper Överlöde had an underlying message (about the music business or the difficulty of making a living therein), and that made the book more bearable for parents to read even if younger kids might have missed the message / the allusions.

Verdict: It's okay for the kids to read.
