Description
Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Old School by Jeff Kinney is the tenth book in the wildly popular series—and this time, Greg Heffley is forced to go off the grid.
DESCRIPTION:
Life without electronics? Greg can’t imagine it. But when his mom decides it’s time for the whole town to participate in a “voluntary electronics-free weekend,” Greg’s world is flipped upside down.
Suddenly, it’s no phones, no video games, no internet—just boredom, chores, and awkward face-to-face conversations. Greg’s mom is on a mission to bring back the “good old days,” but Greg just wants his screens back.
Things get worse when Greg ends up on a school trip to Hardscrabble Farms—an old-fashioned camp with no electricity, lots of rules, and a terrifying legend about a farmer named Silas Scratch.
Between farm life fails, outhouse disasters, and unplugged awkwardness, Greg might not survive this taste of old-school living.
