Overview:
Embark on two distinct Wimpy Kid experiences in one value-packed set. Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Getaway follows Greg Heffley and his family as they trade winter weather for sun and sea, escaping to a tropical island resort for a much-needed break. The vacation quickly spirals into a series of comic misadventures—sunburns, stomach troubles, and a few unsettling surprises—that prove paradise isn’t as perfect as it seems. Paired with Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Do-It-Yourself Book, this collection invites readers to step into Greg’s world with hands-on creativity: draw Wimpy Kid-style cartoons, complete playful prompts, and craft their own journal entries using vibrant, full-colour panels. The two titles together deliver a balanced blend of fast-paced storytelling and creative play, perfect for fans who love laughs, relatable family dynamics, and an active reading experience you can pick up anywhere.

What Makes This Collection Special:
This duo is a thoughtful fusion of a well-loved adventure and an engaging, interactive companion. The Getaway delivers quick-witted humor and chaotic family moments that feel authentic to middle-grade life, while the Do-It-Yourself Book invites young readers to become co-creators—drawing scenes, jotting ideas, and building their own Wimpy Kid diary. The combination creates a binge-worthy reading-and-creating journey: great for solo quiet time, car journeys, or shared family reading, with a tangible sense of accomplishment as kids complete drawings and journal entries. Premium paperback packaging and familiar cover art make this set a confident gift choice for birthdays, holidays, or back-to-school treats that sparks imagination and long-term engagement with the Wimpy Kid universe.
