In 2007, diary of a wimpy kid was published, introducing readers to Greg Heffley and his family, his best friend Rowley Jefferson, and the dreaded cheese touch. More than 250 million copies later, diary of a wimpy kid has become a beloved book all around the world. And now, for the first time ever, Greg’s diary - um, make that journal - is coming to life in a full-colour, 3d animated disney+ production. Whether you're meeting Greg for the first time or you're a lifelong fan of Jeff Kinney's hilarious series, you'll love diving into the wimpy kid universe.

It’s a new school year, and Greg Heffley finds himself thrust into middle school, where undersized weaklings share the hallways with kids who are taller, meaner, and already shaving. The hazards of growing up before you’re ready are uniquely revealed through words and drawings as Greg records them in his diary.

In book one of this debut series, Greg is happy to have Rowley, his sidekick, along for the ride. But when Rowley’s star starts to rise, Greg tries to use his best friend’s newfound popularity to his own advantage, kicking off a chain of events that will test their friendship in hilarious fashion.
