Anyone who has ever suffered at the hands of an older brother or sister, or even worse, been sandwiched in between older and younger siblings, will thoroughly enjoy this cartoon novel delivered in the guise of the journal of the beleaguered, under-appreciated and very funny Gregory. This book makes an especially excellent reading suggestion for reluctant boy readers. The third in the series is forthcoming!

Ok, so I read this book to see why my students seem to love it so.
Now, I'm all for silly humor. I can understand that, but I don't get the attraction for this book. I hated it. I finished it in a little over a day, but never did I stop wishing for it to end. I think the characters were horrible; the people in the book did mean things to each other; every person in the book was inconsiderate to each other; etc. I really could go on!

Rodrick Rules was just as funny and descriptive as the other. In this book, Greg has disturbing conflicts with his brother that enrages Greg. As Greg states his *moments* with Rodrick, he discovers Rodrick has been rather mean too him. I can't wait to read the third book!

When last we saw our hero Greg Heffley he had survived everything from cursed cheese to an unfortunate stage debut. Not that much has changed in his life, of course. He’s still a perpetual victim of his older brother Rodrick’s crazy schemes and his younger brother Manny’s three-year-old excesses. Greg might have to do what Rodrick says for a while too since his older brother knows something terrible, HORRIBLE even, that happened to Greg over the summer and he's threatening to tell the w More...

RODRICK RULES - the sequel to the New York Times bestseller DIARY OF A WIMPY KID - is another enjoyable read. It shows how a self-centered and funny middle-schooler deals with his own problems, most of which are his own makings. Greg here, do not take any responsibility or understand other's problems other than his own. The kid is not a perfect kid, as everyone of us, but his ways and approach to a problem are..what to say..kid-like. :-) Most of the us have our own Greg moments. I will say

Greg Heffley is back for a second volume. Things haven't changed much for him--he still thinks he's cooler than his best friend Rowley, his parents are still nerdily out of touch, and Greg is still running for the coveted Class Clown title. Unfortunately, that's not all that hasn't changed over the summer--younger brother Manny is still a tattletale, older brother Rodrick is still a bully, and Greg still has the Cheese Touch. Only now Manny is spilling secrets from ages ago, Rodrick has a new

The sequel to Kinney’s #1 Bestseller, Rodrick Rules follows wimpy middle school student Greg Heffley in his second year of middle school. And where the first book focused more on Greg and his friendship with Rowley and his trying to fit in and be popular, the sequel focuses more on his relationship with his older brother Rodrick – a lazy high school student with ambitions of being in a heavy metal rock band. Throughout the book, Rodrick is a nasty big brother who doesn’t treat Greg very well – w

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules was no dought a very fun book to read,it is probably one of the most fun book i've ever read. What I mean by that is no matter how old you are you will get a kick out of reading this book. One of the good things about this book is that I could actually relate to some of what the narrator goes through in his life. For example the relationship between him and his brother I can compare their relationship to that of me and my big brother, and me and my little brot

I gave Kinney four stars for this one because though I really enjoyed the "little kid just trying to make it through life" aspect of the book, there was pretty much zero character improvement (or even character devolvement). Gregory in particular seems completely unchanged by the many experiences he faces; he remains a self-centered, self-pleasing, Rodrick-hating, Manny-fearing, friend-abusing class clown wannabe.

This second installment of the series builds nicely on the first, and kept my interest just about as much as the first, and was just as quick a read. It gets a little deeper than the first book (as far as the writing style and format allows) with the characters and their relationships, this time especially regarding the main character Greg and his older brother Rodrick. The previous book covered an entire school year while this one covers just a few months, so the reader gets a little more de
