1 Kinney, J. (2015). Diary
of a wimpy kid: Old school. New York, NY: Amulet Books. Technology is taking over the world,
and Greg Heffley's mom knows it. After her desire to stay away from technology
(and forces everyone around her to do the same), a series of events lead Greg
to live several days without it. He ends up in a camp due to an unfortunate,
but minor, car accident. To avoid his dad and suffering consequences, he
ends up at Hardscrabble Farms Camp. But, the camp actually brought him closer
to his dad than he could ever imagine! Kinney's black and white stick figures
look like cartoons drawn by a 5th grader. The doodling and the journal entry
format are probably some of the reasons why Kinney's books are so popular. Anybody
who loves funny graphic novels would love to get his hands on this book.
