The twelfth laugh-out-loud, fully-illustrated Diary of a Wimpy Kid book from #1 international bestselling author Jeff Kinney ! A global phenomenon with 250 million copies of the series sold worldwide! No doubt kids around the world are excited to have the new book, and are eager for the Disney+ movie. But so too, no doubt, are their parents, who Kinney said often tell him how they've laughed with their kids over Greg Heffley’s adventures. A related problem is that readers will see a “story” featured in one section of Medium and jump into it, while a subsequent part of the same section of the book will not be featured at all, or in some other section of Medium. Thus for the audience, continuity is fragmented.

A global phenomenon with 250 million copies of the series sold worldwide! Tryouts are a mess, and Greg is sure he won’t make the cut. But he unexpectedly lands a spot on the worst team.

After a disastrous field day competition at school, Greg decides that when it comes to his athletic career, he's officially retired. But after his mom urges him to give sports one more chance, he reluctantly agrees to sign up for basketball. The cover of Big Shot depicts Greg with mismatched equipment from multiple different sports. According to Kinney, this was a design choice to communicate that the story was about sports in general, rather than only basketball. [8] After the release of the book, Kinney said it took him several weeks to write the first sentence of the book. Tryouts are a MESS, and Greg is sure he won't make the cut. But he unexpectedly lands a spot on the worst team. I know some people think the author should just end the series already, but I'm enjoying them too much to want them to ever stop. I wouldn't mind there being 30 books before Jeff Kinney is done or if he continues writing them till he dies/retires.To promote Big Shot, Kinney is once again heading out on a socially distanced "drive-thru" tour—his fourth since the pandemic hit in 2020. I'm giving this 4 stars because I'm in a four-star giving mood today, and the book is still making me smirk thinking about it. But on another day, I'd probably only give it 3 stars.
