Overview

Greg Heffley has always been in a hurry to grow up. But is getting older really all it’s cracked up to be?

 

Greg suddenly finds himself dealing with the pressures of boy-girl parties, increased responsibilities, and even the awkward changes that come with getting older—all without his best friend, Rowley, at his side. Can Greg make it through on his own? Or will he have to face the “ugly truth”?

Editorial Reviews

From Barnes & Noble

Was growing up a bad idea? Like any other middle-schooler, Wimpy Kid Greg Heffley wished that he could speed up the process of getting older. What he didn't anticipate was all the changes and responsibilities that came with it. And why didn't anyone warn him about the possible pratfalls of boy-girl parties? Jeff Kinney's new Diary of a Wimpy Kid saga will touch the soul of every self-conscious youngster, which is to say every youngster.

Publishers Weekly
"See, when you're a little kid, nobody ever warns you that you've got an expiration date. One day you're hot stuff and the next day you're a dirt sandwich," Greg Heffley tells readers partway into this fifth installment of Kinney's bestselling Wimpy Kid series. There's a noticeable feeling of transition in this outing as Greg negotiates a sour patch with longtime best friend Rowley, his mother's decision to go back to school, the imminence of puberty (and dreaded accompanying discussions at home and at school), and the fact that one can't stay a child forever--despite evidence to the contrary provided by Greg's Uncle Gary, who's embarking on his fourth marriage. Although there is perhaps less of a central focus in this book than in some of its predecessors, the sense that "all good things must come to an end" emerges, something that inevitably will be true of the series itself at some point. But Kinney hasn't lost his touch for spinning universal details of middle-school life into comic gold--he doesn't have to worry about becoming a dirt sandwich anytime soon. Ages 8–12. (Nov.)

From The Critics
Life is hard, especially when you move into middle grades and have to deal with issues like best friends, puberty, girls and so much more. Can Greg navigate his way through the year without the help of his best friend, or should I say former best friend Rowley? The book opens with that issue facing Greg—he no longer has a best friend at his side and the prospects of finding a new one are not too promising. How will that end? Will he and Rowley be able to put aside their differences and be a team again? Home life presents its usual problems—family events, like the fourth marriage of one of his uncles and the sit-down chats with Gammie to learn about life and Mom's latest decision. Greg rationalizes by noting that Gammie has lived a long time so she probably knows a lot and the talk just might be worthwhile. Even though Gammie may have some good advice, it is still kind of scary to have a session with her. Mom has decided to go back to school and that creates a whole new set of issues with the new maid Isabella who turns out to not be very much help. All of the events are presented by Kinney's cartoon characters with their exaggerated features and depictions of situations that boys will really understand. Yes, this is a boy's book; and once they have read one, they will probably be hooked and so this fifth book in the series is bound to be a hit. It is a quick read and the cartoons are a perfect fit—my guess is that kids will read it more than once. Reviewer: Marilyn Courtot

Meet the Author

Jeff Kinney
Jeff Kinney
Jeff Kinney is an online game developer and designer and is the author of the New York Times bestselling Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. He spent his childhood in the Washington, D.C., area and moved to New England in 1995.

Biography

All his life, Jeff Kinney wanted to be a cartoonist. As a student at the University of Maryland in the 1990s, he published his comic strip "Igdoof" in the college newspaper, but he soon discovered that succeeding in the real world as a syndicated cartoonist is no easy task. So, after school, he supported himself as a newspaper designer and computer programmer, while working out ideas for a children's book that combined cartoons with conventional storytelling.

Once he conceived the concept for Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Kinney devoted nearly six years to developing the storyline and artwork. Fashioned as a journal with appealing, expressive stick figure drawings on every page, Diary is narrated in the pitch-perfect (and hilariously deadpan) voice of a not-always-likeable but totally believable tweener named Greg Heffley. Poised to make the painful transition from elementary to middle school, Greg struggles with the usual preteen angst: bullies and cliques, annoying siblings and clueless parents, faithful friends and cute, unattainable girls.

Although Kinney never intended to publish his book online, when the opportunity arose to serialize Greg's adventures on Funbrain.com, he knew he'd found the perfect way to reach his target audience. In 2004, the comic strip began appearing in daily installments on the website. The feature was a huge hit, attracting thousands of hits a day. Moreover, the online version paved the way to Kinney's five-book deal with the publisher Harry N. Abrams.

Armed with fresh, new story lines, Kinney launched the print sequence in 2007. From the very first installment, entitled simply Diary of a Wimpy Kid, the series was a success -- especially with reluctant readers who found the diary-with-doodles format far more accessible than conventional books. Greg, with his hilarious antics, backfiring schemes, and totally unfiltered thoughts (his mom has agreed not to read what he writes!), has struck a responsive chord -- both with kids who identify with his growing pains and with grownups who vividly recall their own.

Good To Know

  • Jeff Kinney claims that he writes for kids because he believes the most interesting and funniest stories come from people's childhoods.

  • In an interview with familyeducation.com, Kinney was asked which he liked more: writing or drawing cartoons. He answered this way: " Both writing and drawing are a struggle for me. I am cursed with being a very slow illustrator, and this book requires at least 1,000 illustrations. So sometimes, the joy of illustrating is a bit diminished by the amount of time that illustrating takes. What I enjoy is seeing the words and illustrations come together on the page."

  • Kinney knew he'd made the grade when Diary of a Wimpy Kid was chosen to appear as a plot point on the popular Disney-produced preteen series Wizards of Waverly Place.

  • Kinney deliberately avoids putting pop culture references into his stories because he wants them to have a timeless feel. He hopes readers will be able to pick his books up 20 years from now and still be able to relate to themes.

      Great series

      This entire series is fantastic and I would highly recommend it to any parent who has a reluctant reader in their house. Sure, it's great for the highest of readers, too, and that's what a great author does. Similar to the Harry Potter series in that it appeals to a large group of readers, all the books were funny and dealt with humorous issues on so many levels of understanding. Funny for the 8-year-old and equally funny for the 13-year-old. I have a lot of trouble finding books for my 9-year-old son and he is very picky. This will be a sure hit. Another book I'd recommend to those of you in my situation would be "Did You Ever Wonder" by Brendan Lynch. It's one of those humorous books that my son loves. The day he got it he kept reading entries to my husband and I. I'm always on the hunt for books for him though so I'll keep searching!

      I'm a 6th grade student- Glendale,Az - The Ugly Truth about The Ugly Truth

      I'm going to talk about Diary Of A Wimpy Kid-The Ugly Truth. This book is by Jeff Kinney. I have read every one of the Diary of the Wimpy Kid books. This book is about a boy named Greg who goes through middle school. Greg is not a nice friend and does not want to be a kid anymore. He wants to grow up, but not face the changes on the way to become an adult. Rowerly was Greg's best friend and now is nerdy more than ever. Greg really wants a friend so at the end he and Rowerly are friends again. That's really the main part in the book. The setting is a lot of places. The main place is school and Greg's house. The minor setting is Greg's Gamie's house. Gamie is like a protagonist and minor character at the same time. Gamie is Greg's great- grandmother. This book is all over the place. It is not an organized book in my opinion. There is a rumor that there might be another Diary of a Wimpy Kid book coming up. I would highly recommend not buying it. I also think that the author Jeff Kinney, needs a break. I think he should also revise his stories. The reason I recommended the other Diary of a Wimpy Kid's is because they have a plot. You can find out more by reading their reviews. I would recommend for girls Dear Dumb Diary, that series actually has a plot, and a theme. Let's talk about Diary of a Wimpy Kid-The Ugly Truth's theme. There isn't one. Every book is supposed to have a theme or moral, this book doesn't. If you need the theme for this book then do not do it as a book report. I can not stress enough about NOT BUYING this book. DON'T BUY THIS BOOK. It has nothing to offer - it's not even funny. That is my review. Here is my tip to the author: take more time on your books. I can tell you rushed on this book. The ugly truth about this book is it's not a good book.

      I'm really exited to get this book. I'm buying it today. But really people you can't give it a 5 star rating if you haven't even read the dang book! I know it will probably be good but I don't know so 4 stars just because I don't know.

      You can't give a book a 5-star review when it's not even out yet, morons. For all you know the author just wiped his behind with some paper and then just had copies printed to fill the pages of the book. Read it before you review it.

      Last book of the series (so far) didn't disappoint!

      Another very funny installment. If you haven't already read all of the previous books, you must read them first! The story of Greg's life continues. My favorite part from this book is, "When you're a little kid, nobody ever warns you that you've got an expiration date. One day you're hot stuff and the next day you're a dirt sandwich." :-) Great, funny stuff!

      Diary of a Whimpy Kid: The Ugly Truth

      Greg had a big fight with his best-friend, Rowley . Then he finds out that Rowley's parents found a replacement best friend, a hired role-model from a company called "Cool Brian". Now without a best friend, Greg's tries to become popular in various ways, most of which are immediately backfired. Another struggle that arises, is that Greg must attend his uncle's fourth wedding, and when his wedding comes, Greg will have "The Talk" with his great-grandmother "Gammie", a polite but sly and clever old woman. "The Ugly Truth" picks up on the theme that kicked off the series in 2007: Greg's ex-friendship with the portly, innocent Rowley. Rowley, an only child whose parents have coddled him, has spent the summer with a new best friend that his mom and dad hired through a mentor rental service. And Greg, with just a couple days left before school restarts, is considering his options for a substitute friend who could cushion his discomfort at being 52nd most popular in class. "When you're a kid, nobody ever warns you that you've got an expiration date. One day you're hot stuff, and the next day you're a dirt sandwich," Greg writes. Told from Greg's point of view, "The Ugly Truth," like all previous "Diary" books, is presented in journal form on ruled paper in a font that emulates handwriting. Complementing and, in many cases, literally drawing out the action, every page has at least one pen-and-ink illustration. Many of them are accompanied by word- and thought-bubbles, making these cartoon-enhanced novels easy to read and popular with boys. No one said growing up was easy. In Kinney's hands, it's not only difficult but laugh-out-loud hysterical. The author plans to pen two more "Diary" books. What isn't funny is having to wait for the next one. "The Ugly Truth" brims with uncomfortably funny and cringe-worthy situations such as Greg's transition from a pediatric dentist to oral surgeon Salazar Kagan, whose office is filled with horrific specimens of inadequate dental care, such as the rotting tooth in a jar of soda. Or the time Greg is forced to do laundry and to fold his mom's underwear. When Greg's mom decides to go back to school and leaves Greg, his dad and two brothers to make their own dinner, it ends with a visit to the emergency room.

      This is a great book_you must read it!

      I think that kids should read and buy Diary of a Wimpy Kid The Ugly Truth because it’s kind of teaching you things about Greg’s problems.
      The book affected me because Greg and I are similar. Greg and I are the same age and we both have problems with the people around us. This book shows that I have someone else like me. It made me feel like Greg and I want to grow up fast. The Ugly Truth of growing up is that Greg and I want to grow up but don’t want our bodies to change. Also Greg and I want to do different things, like Greg wants to go to Jordan Jury’s party and I want to go to over night camp.
      Reading this book made me happy because Greg has an interesting life and has alot of interesting things going on. People should read the book because Greg may be similar to you guys and or you guys may go through what Greg is going through.

      READ THIS BOOK!!!!!!

      Book Review Outline
      Book title and author: Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Ugly Truth by Jeff Kinney
      Title of review: The Ugly Truth Review
      Number of stars (1 to 5): 5 Stars

      Introduction
      When was the last time you read a good book? The best book I ever read was Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Ugly Truth by Jeff Kinney. If you love humor and dorky kids, you would love this book, so stop what you¿re doing and pick up this book.
      Description and summary of main points
      This book is about a boy named Greg Heffley. Greg and his friend Rowley were best friends and over the summer they got in a fight. Greg is lazy and always had Rowley carry him up the big hill to their houses. Rowley finally got sick of it and they ¿broke-up.¿ Now all Greg is worried about is going back to school and seeing Rowley because the two of them had a good thing going. In this book Greg also tries to find a new best friend, instead of one wimpy kid.
      Evaluation
      I personally love humor especially about wimpy dorks making their way through middle school. The book is great for kids who love humor. To understand this book you need sustained silence which is perfect. I think kids who love humor books and are about in their young teens should read this book.
      Conclusion
      In conclusion, Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Ugly Truth is the best book I ever read and it had me laughing out loud almost the entire book. Soon, there will be a movie following the series.
      Your final review
      I give this book 5 star.

      I give this book a 4 star review in humor.

      truely a hilarious

      The book Diary of a wimpy kid the ugly truth is by Jeff Kinney is a great book. In the beginning you meet the characters Greg Huffley and Rowley Jefferson. They are fighting and ended the friend ship in the beginning of the book. Greg goes to his first mixed girl boy parties at the school, and things turn out really bad. Greg is looking forward to a dentist appointment because he likes his dentist but his dad changes how Greg is going to see for his check up. I believe this is a humorous book and I think everyone should read it. One funny part is when Greg has to talk to his grandmother about the changes he will be experiencing. Another is when he thinks he will be a grooms man and becomes the assistant flower boy. You might want to start at the beginning of the series because the first couple will give you more off an idea of who the characters are. I believe it is a truly great book. If you like humor you will probably love this book I know I did.
