OK some of ya'll got kids and might know this.

The wifey plucked a wish card off the angel tree at work and all the kid wants is a book. Specifically "Diary of a Wimpy Kid"

I told her, no need to go to a bookstore, Amazon Prime to the rescue! But, I didn't know it was a series... Rut-ro.

So... Because the kid didn't specify...
Do they need to be done in order? They are pretty cheap we might do 2 or 3.

Any help / suggestions appreciated.

No order needed. Any one could stand alone. This is according to my 9yo who has read them all.

No order needed, kids can share and swap. Just grab a couple and they'll be happy.

I am told by my resident bibliophile that the order does not matter in this series.

ETA--He just now added that he thinks the earlier ones are better.

My son loved these books, he said it doesn't really matter about the order. They made 3 movie adaptations that were pretty good. There was a reboot attempt earlier this year but it was awful.

That was fast!
Ya'll just earned a little bit of Karma by helping make a christmas wish come true for a child that likely lives a hard life!

Thanks all, it's off to Amazon.

I have read every single one.

Get the original one. Believe it’s just called diary of a whinpy kid and “the long haul” is laugh out loud hilarious.

Generally they are all very similar and order does not really matter.

my 9 year old son reads 'Dog Days of Summer" and " The Long Haul" in that series over and over. My 7 year ild daughter has read them as well. we have several other titles in the series but they like those 2 the best
