Comics For Kids

In Big Shot, book 16 of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series from number one international best-selling author Jeff Kinney, Greg Heffley and sports just don't mix.

But after his mom urges him to give sports one more chance, he reluctantly agrees to sign up for basketball.

Greg Heffley and his family hit the road for a cross-country camping trip, ready for the adventure of a lifetime.

When the skies open up and the water starts to rise, the Heffleys wonder if they can save their vacation-or if they're already in too deep.

Greg Heffley is in big trouble. School property has been damaged, and Greg is the prime suspect. But the crazy thing is, he's innocent. Or at least sort of. The authorities are closing in, but when a surprise blizzard hits, the Heffley family is trapped indoors. Greg knows that when the snow melts he's going to have to face the music, but could any punishment be worse than being stuck inside with your family for the holidays?

Even when he was a kid, everyone thought Jeff Kinney was talented. People loved his drawings, and when he went to college his comic strip, Igdoof, was so popular that it spread to other universities! Still, Jeff faced challenges. His cartoons were rejected by syndicates that claimed his art was unprofessional. Then an idea struck: Jeff would write a journal from the perspective of a child, illustrated with doodles just like a kid might do. And so the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series was born - and it was a hit!
