If you love the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books, then you really can't miss out on the The Awesome Friendly Kid books, the brilliant spin-off series taking you into the mind of Greg Heffley's best friend, Rowley Jefferson!
You don't have to read the books in any particular order, and it's also fine if you haven't read the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books either. In each installation, we get a glimpse into Rowley Jefferson's mind. Initially, he sets out to write a biography of his best friend, Greg. Soon enough, however, Rowley's thoughts take over and the books become his own. Memories of friendship, adventure and even imaginative fantasy quests he goes on with Greg!
The books are so funny, and sometimes absolutely bonkers (which is only a good thing in the Wimpy Kid world!). Love this series?
