New softcover book, 222 pages, published 2007.

The highly anticipated sequel to the #1 New York Times bestselling book!

Whatever you do, don't ask Greg Heffley how he spent his summer holidays, because he definitely doesn't want to talk about it.

As Greg enters the new school year, he's eager to put the past three months behind him... and one event in particular. Unfortunately for Greg, his older brother Rodrick knows all about the incident Greg wants to keep under wraps. But secrets have a way of getting out...especially when a diary is involved.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules chronicles Greg's attempts to navigate the hazards of high school, impress the girls, steer clear of the school talent show, and most important, keep his secret safe.

"Greg comes across as a real kid, and his story is one that will appeal to all those real kids who feel just like him."
