My son and his Ninang (godmother), who is my only sister by the way, are such bookworms. They both love books so much that when Ralph's grades for the second trimester came out, my sister was so happy and gave him a 500 peso National Bookstore gift cheque. With the gift cheque, he was able to buy two books: Amelia Bedelia Helps Out (he is such a fan of Amelia Bedelia and even calls our house boy Amelio Bedelio, hehehe) and the Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
The latter is an interesting book because it's funny cartoon novel written like a diary. Oops, journal, I mean. Greg Heffley, the wimpy boy who wrote all the entries in this "journal" apparently wanted to have a JOURNAL, not a diary. But his Mom bought one that says DIARY in the cover. He thinks diaries are for wimps and journals are cooler.
"
Diary of a Wimpy Kid" is the #1 New York Times Bestseller of Jeff Kinney. It is hardbound and a steal at 435 pesos.
