Story: What happens when the first book in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series, the humorous saga of middle school student Greg Heffley's life, is made into a movie? Jeff Kinney, author of the series, served as executive producer for the film. Kinney provides a humorous behind-the-scene look at the making of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid. The book is illustrated with Kinney's cartoons and shots from the movie production. The book serves as a companion to the movie version of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, which opened April 2, 2010. For more about the book, read my review of The Wimpy Kid Movie Diary.
