Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Big Shot (Book 16) Paperback

Sport has never been Greg Heffley's strength, which is exactly why the sixteenth Wimpy Kid book puts him on a basketball team. Pressure from home pushes Greg into organised sport, and the season that follows involves an underqualified squad, parents who care too much and a boy who would rather be somewhere else. The journal format keeps everything moving in short takes, and the cartoon panels handle physical comedy that written description would slow down. Readers who have followed Greg through school corridors and family holidays get a familiar voice in an unfamiliar setting. What the format offers: • A sports-season storyline told from the bench outward • Cartoon panels carrying much of the physical comedy • A 224-page Puffin paperback • A recommended reading age of about seven to twelve years Suited to reluctant readers, sport-minded children and series collectors shopping at Boipoka.
