Greg Heffley’s school year continues relentlessly towards the Christmas break, but this time most of the action takes place outside of school. Greg needs money to feed his Net Kritterz habit and to purchase Christmas presents, so he comes up with several money making schemes. But when Greg and Rodney discover that the delicious drummies they buy at the school holiday fair are sold at incredible markups and that they can be bought in the grocery store, they decide to hold their own holiday fair. It will be the source of all of their income. But to do that they need to advertise, so they create their own newspaper and begin selling ads.


But when Greg and Rodney hang green poster boards on the school wall and the rain leeches the dye and stain the walls, the school and the police get involved. Who would vandalize the school this way? With Christmas fast approaching, with Santa and the police on the lookout, and with the biggest blizzard coming in years, Greg’s life as he knows it is about to end...
