INFANTILES Y JUVENILES

it’s summer vacation, the weather’s great, and all the kids are having fun outside. So where’s Greg Heffley? Greg's inside his house, playing video games with the shades drawn. . . Greg, a self-confessed “indoor person,” is living out his ultimate summer fantasy: no responsibilities and no rules. But Greg’s mom has a different vision for an ideal summer—one packed with outdoor activities and “family togetherness.” Whose vision will win out? Or will a new addition to the Heffley family change everything?

His mom thinks video games are turning his brain to mush, so she wants her son to put down the controller and explore his “creative side.” As if that’s not scary enough, Halloween’s just around the corner and the frights are coming at Greg from every angle. When Greg discovers a bag of gummy worms, it sparks an idea. Can he get his mom to ease off by making a movie . . . and will he become rich and famous in the process? Or will doubling down on this plan just double Greg’s troubles?

Greg Heffley has always wanted to grow up fast―but reality hits hard. In The Ugly Truth, the fifth book in Jeff Kinney’s #1 international bestselling Diary of a Wimpy Kid series, Greg is facing boy-girl parties, new responsibilities, and the weird changes that come with getting older. And to make things worse, he’s doing it all without his best friend, Rowley.
