Diary of a Wimpy Kid By Trevor P.

Most of the people who read the first __**Diary of a Wimpy Kid**__ by Jeff Kinney think it is just a book about a kid who wants to be famous. That is not what I think it is about. **I think it is about two friends who learn to stand up for each other**. Listen to the way these two friends learn how to stand up for each other**.**


 * At the beginning, Greg and Rowley are always arguing over stupid stuff like who gets to ride the big wheel and who gets to throw the football.** These are stupid reasons to be fighting over so why don't they find another thing to do so they don't argue all the time. You don't want to end up like Greg and Rowley. This actually happened with my friend Braden and I that we are always arguing over who's house to go to and what to do when we get there.


 * Towards the middle of the book, Rowley and Greg are not friends any more.** Rowley on the other hand finds a new best friend, Colin, which is Greg's backup friend. Greg is then stuck with the geekiest kid in school. Fregley. This is a lesson that you should always have more then two friends because if you only have one friend and they leave, you are not in a good position. This is like me with my friend Zach. We are not friends any more because we are always disagreeing on stuff.


 * At the end of the book, some mean teenagers make Rowley eat some moldy cheese from off the black top.** Everyone thinks it is Rowley but Greg stands up for his best friend and says that he ate the cheese. Everyone runs except Greg and Rowley who are friends again. This is a good way of standing up for a friend of yours. This is just like the time some kids were picking on my friend Charlie so I stood up for him. This is a good example of me standing up for someone I don't hang out with much.

As you can see, __Diary of a wimpy kid__ is more then just a funny story for all ages. It is actually a story of two friends who learn to stand up for each other. So you can always stand up for your friends or sometimes even when you see someone being picked on, you can always stand up for them.
