Double Down (Diary of a Wimpy Kid #11)

Getting my child to read is not always easy — I usually have to remind and push a bit. But with this series, it’s different. He takes the book himself, sits down, and reads without any pressure. Even more, he asks me to buy the next books in the series — and that says a lot. I’m really grateful to the author for creating books that genuinely spark interest in reading. I work at a school, and I see the same thing with other kids: during free time, some of them choose these books to read instead of playing. That speaks for itself. If your child doesn’t like reading or needs motivation, this series can really help build that interest. Highly recommended.

I am always a happy camper when ordering from Amazon! They never let me down. We pre-ordered the book during the Summer and it arrived the day of it's release. People don't notice the small stuff but I do. As I took the book out of the package I noticed the book has a smooth texture on the front cover. The book cover in general has a smooth grip- like texture, lol. I always love the smell of a new book but the smooth outside texture of the book adds a good feature to the book. The book has comic like pictures, but don't think it's a comic strip type book overall. It is a well worded book from the first page to the last page (217 pages overall) each page has a complete word filled page but the pictures adds to the imagination of the child reading this book. My son started reading this book series at 8. He's now 10 and he LOVES this book series so much he looks forward to the new books that come out and every once in a while re-reads the older book series. We even have family movie nights and I don't mind watching the couple movies that have been made from the "Diary of A Whimpy Kid" book series. I'm 32 and I find parts of the movie hillarious so I can only imagine reading this book as a kid. I can't say enough good things about this book or any other book from the series. If you're a parent like me, you'd rather watch your child read VS. Playing video games or watching TV programs. At least while reading it engages a child's imagination as well as improving their spelling. Some studies has shown that kids, especially those that are more visual learners, spelling improves the more they read. :) I will be on the lookout for more books by this same Author (Jeff Kinney). Don't hesitate to buy the book for your child (ren). I took a glimpse of a few pages already while my son is still at school and it's pretty funny! Ha ha ha. I posted some pictures for previewing. :-D

My son loves to read.

In the eleventh book in a fantastic series about middle school, no matter what Greg does it seems to not go right. To make matters worst his parents assume he’s always playing around, even when he isn’t.

Granddaughter loved this book.

Love

Fun book. Delivered as expected. New condition

the parts are as funny as poop and it is awsome i recomend this book to kids who like very funny stuff (and reading diarys)

My kid likes this book. We bought a few other wimpy kid stories in Jarir, but it's 45 per piece. Amazon, obviously, has better price.

Ottimo libro, ho fatto la felicità di mia figlia. Troverete altre recensioni simili a questa perché ho acquistato più libri della stessa tipologia.

Gostei do livro, mas os anteriores foram melhor. Não achei tão engraçado, mas gostei. No aguardo do proximo, quem sabe este ano, né!

Good

There were a lot of blank spaces in some of the words like O TOBER BORIN other than that i loved it (·_·)
