Diary of a Wimpy Kid #5: The Ugly Truth

Kinney, Jeff. Diary of a Wimpy Kid #5: The Ugly Truth. Book 5 of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. 2010. 218p. ISBN 978-0-8109-8491-2. Available at FIC KIN on the library shelves.




Back at school, Greg has had a falling out with Rowley, and now he finds himself alone navigating the hallways of middle school. The theme this year seems to be all about responsibilities. His father wants him to do more chores and to follow through. His mother is going back to school, so now the family must now pitch in with cleaning chores, making dinner, and making lunches. And, to top it all up, Greg is now entering the time where ackward changes happen to his body, and everyone is full of advice for him.


The lovable yet clueless Greg once again must suffer those around him as he navigates this new school year filled with boy-girl parties, an uncle’s wedding, and the dreaded “big talk” about becoming a man. Can Greg come out of this experience unscathed?
