#Diary of an awesome friendly kid series
This series spinoff first appeared in 2018 (at half its present length) as a promotion for Scholastic Book Clubs. But Rowley remains an "awesome friendly kid" through and through when the friends create original comics, Rowley's superhero, Amazing Guy, blocks attacks with rainbows and wears padded gloves "so he doesn't hurt the bad guys too much." His superpower, like Rowley's, is kindness. The book starts out with Rowley talking about his journal and he and Greg are best friends. Get ready for a whole new look into Jeff Kinney’s Diary of a Wimpy Kid Introducing the newest Wimpy Kid. What follows is a retelling of some indignities that Rowley has suffered at Greg's hands: Greg's manipulation of Rowley extends to every facet of their friendship, including cheating on a math test so thoroughly that he inadvertently copies Rowley's name onto his own paper. Diary of an Awesome Friendly Kid: Rowley Jefferson's Journal Main Characters. What begins as Rowley's diary illustrated in Kinney's familiar stick-figure style quickly morphs into a biography of Greg, who insists that "there are gonna be a LOT of biographies about him one day," but he's giving Rowley the chance to write the first. (After all, one day Greg will be rich and famous, and everyone will want to know his life's story.) But Rowley is a poor choice for the job, and his 'biography' of Greg is a hilarious mess. And none will be surprised that as soon as Rowley claims it, Greg hijacks it for himself. In Diary of an Awesome Friendly Kid, Rowley writes about his experiences and agrees to play the role of biographer for Greg along the way. No fan of the Wimpy Kid series would argue that Greg Heffley's long-suffering sidekick, Rowley Jefferson, doesn't deserve a turn in the spotlight.
