    I thought this book was really good because I think that what goes on in the production of a movie is really interesting and I would like to be a film/book writer and illustrator some day, so this book really helped me understand what goes on!

    There is a movie coming out May 27. I’ve also read the Wimpy Kid Movie Diary: How Greg Heffley Went Hollywood.

    The book is about how they went about making the first movie. It was really interesting to hear how they had to make some of the props.

    I must admit that at first I didn’t like this book, but then I kept reading and it was really good! It’s very interesting and funny. I think the age range is still the same but this would also be good for kids that are curious about how things are made.

    If like me, you have and have read Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Diary of a Wimpy Kid Rodrick Rules, Diary of a Wimpy Kid The Last Straw and Diary of a Wimpy Kid Dog Days and the Do-it-yourself book, this is definitely the best book to add to your collection. Although the film’s not out in Britain yet, this book is almost like actually watching the movie, and going behind the scenes.
