If I had to choose one word to describe this book, it would be: AWESOME! Hit rewind-- flashback time! The great-great-great grandfather of present day Stanley is chasing after a girl. Not just any girl, but the most beautiful girl in town. But someone else also wants to marry her- an old 60-year-old farmer! The only way to get her hand in marriage is to bring her father the largest, fattest pig. Not having something to bring, young Stanley goes to Madame Zeroni, who gives him directions to climb the mountain, and have a pig drink water from the river, while singing a special song. On the last day, he should bring Madame Zeroni up the mountain and have her drink while he sings the song. If he doesn't fulfill this, his whole family will be cursed. Stanley never carried Madame Zeroni up the mountain. Is the curse real? OK, fast-forward to now: Present-day Stanley Yelnats is an average boy, until one day fate hits him in the head. No, literally, it hit him in the head!😂 A pair of valuable sneakers fall out of the sky as Stanley is walking home from a hard day at school and the police believes Stanley stole them! He has a choice for punishment once he arrives in court: he can either go to jail, or go to Camp Greenlake. Easy decision, right? Camp Greenlake, of course! But Stanley soon figures out that this camp doesn't even have a lake! It's been long dried up. Every day at this camp Stanley must dig a 5 by 5 hole in the hard, crusty, desert ground. Not much better than jail! One boy nicknamed Zero asks Stanley to help him learn to read and write in exchange for help shoveling his hole. After Zero runs away, Stanley runs after him-- but they have no water. Can they survive, and will the curse finally be broken? And what are the holes kids have been forced to dig really for? This book was so good! The plotline flowed together, and I was hanging on the edge of my seat to read more! The story itself is brilliant, I would have never thought of it myself! 5/5❤

I have read the series multiple times, and my mom was always mad about it. I don';t know why, but Jeff Kinney had m hooked on from the first page. That is not something that happens a lot with me. I have to read a few pages and then I decide whether I want to read the book or not. So this is probably one of the many books that would be my go-to if I didn't have any other books to read. If you don't know what this book is about, it is about a kid that is in middle school. He has weird people in his h=neighborhood and school. He wants to to do grown-up stuff and all the things his parents do. But when he tries, he finds out how hard it is. It shows his emotions about school, at his home, and a bunch of other stuff many kids have to deal with. I don't know how, but Jeff Kinney mixed comedy with actual life o well, you would actually think he was writing this books when he was a child. Overall, I give this book 5/5 stars. Well done, Jeff!

Very good book with tons of information! Totally recommended!

I won this book through A DOGO book giveaway, and I absolutely loved it! I finished the entire book in one day because it was really captivating! There were so many facts about money I didn't know, and I got to earn all kinds of cool things like mining for cryptocurrency and new money robots that are being built! You even get to learn about how space will use money in the future and how back in the olden days, there were 1,000 dollar U.S. bills! I recommend this book to anyone willing to learn about their money, because not only does this book teach you what you need to know, but it also captures your attention and makes you wonder more about our economic system, as well as the rest of the world!

Gives you a quick peek into the enjoyable world of nature

This is a nice book coz it's for kids and you can also learn about insects and where they live or stuff like that. Recommended book. 5 stars <3

That book looks good but doesn't look for my type and some very cool stuff

This book isn't exactly a story book, but it's more of a fact book. I've said it before and i'll say it again, I LOVE national geographic.(especially the weird but true series!) I learned a lot of new things from this book, cool things, and really weird things. For example, at the beginning of the book it states that the largest pumpkin weighed as much as a horse! Well, this book was really interesting and loved it! I would recommend this book to any person who likes to read national geographic and fact books. =D

This kid-friendly cookbook is absolutely made for kids and people who love to cook. In this book, it is filled with ingredients to how to make a meal, what healthy snacks you should eat, and food that was made to match the months. There is a lot to learn and this really motivates people to eat healthier snacks and to choose a better decision to either eat healthily or junk food. After I read this book, I was completely astonished of so many facts. For instance, I never knew that some fruits could fill you up with a lot of energy! I would rate this book 4/5 because I don't really cook, but it did tell me what food to eat to be healthy.

i love reading those books they are amazing hehehehe
