PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Could a Heffley family vacation ever be anything but a series of escalating tribulations that would test Job's resolve? In this ninth Diary of a Wimpy Kid outing, Kinney detours from the more episodic nature of the earlier books to trace the family's doomed-from-the-start road trip, spurred by Greg's mother's subscription to Family Frolic ("There must be something wrong with our family," Greg muses, "because we can never measure up to the ones in the magazine"). Kinney maintains his knack for getting the details of family life just right (naturally, the only available lounge chair at a wildly overcrowded waterpark is the one with several broken straps). But between the inadvertent acquisition of a pet pig, an attack by a flock of seagulls, Greg getting medical attention at the vet, and baby brother Manny managing to knock the parked family car into drive, there's more out-and-out absurdity in this installment than in previous books. Readers won't care, though, and their own family vacations will look downright blissful by comparison. Ages 8 12.

It is very good
Ok name does reflect personal of boy in the book
The reason this book is getting two stars is because it would be a good read for very young children the thing about the book is that it never has anything good about it it’s only one bad thing after another which grows tiring very quickly the hole story line of the series is about a boy that thinks that his ignorance unpopularity bad grades and bad luck is just a phase and that when he grows up he’ll be a millionaire yes very interesting I know this review is quite mean and many people will contradict me but it’s just my opinion and I just want to state it
