Stage 3: Diary of a Wimpy Kid by Jeff Kinney


We haven't read this book in class, but I can certainly recommend it for Stage 3 students. It is one of the most popular books on the borrowing list for students and is particularly good for people who don't like 'traditional' books. It is set in a schoolyard where a child is being bullied. It has some good issues, but is also very funny and written in an engaging and easy style with plenty of cartoon style pictures to keep the interest levels up. I am confident you would find this in most town libraries.


...Plus, if you have success with the first book, you could always then buy/borrow the whole series. The franchise is currently up to book 4!
Cheers,
Alison :)
