Jumia Books The Long Haul (Diary Of A Wimpy Kid By Jeff Kinney

DIARY OF A WIMPY KID THE LONG HAUL

From lost keys to flat tires, biting pigs and cheese snack loving seagulls, you can bet you and your kids are in for a wild ride as you venture out on this classic family vacation with the Heffleys. While reading it with my 5-year-old son I was reminded of our own cross country road trip. The car was packed to the gills since we were moving from Seattle to Maryland. We had bags overflowing with snacks and more activities than could possibly entertain the kids. Unlike the Heffleys, we also had a plan. After reading The Long Haul I have never been so happy to be a travel planner in my life. We get spontaneous with our adventures, but nothing like mama Heffley tried to do.

WHO SHOULD READ DIARY OF A WIMPY KID THE LONG HAUL? 

Although my son couldn’t read Diary of a Wimpy Kid The Long Haul on his own when it first came out, I found it was the perfect chapter book for us to read together because of the illustrations on each page. He was able to hear the story as I read it, but also stay focused thanks to the fun black and white drawings. This was our first Diary of a Wimpy Kid book, mainly picked up because of the road trip we had just finished. I think we are hooked now and will certainly go back to read the first eight. I have a feeling we have missed out on a few fun adventures with the Heffley family.
