Abstract
Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules" is the second book in Jeff Kinney's popular series that chronicles the trials and tribulations of middle schooler Greg Heffley. In this installment, Greg continues to navigate the complicated landscape of adolescence, but this time, he faces a formidable opponent: his older brother, Rodrick.
The book picks up where the first left off, with Greg trying to survive school and home life. Greg’s relationship with Rodrick, who is always finding ways to make Greg’s life difficult, takes center stage. Their sibling rivalry reaches new heights as Rodrick exploits every opportunity to embarrass Greg and get him into trouble.
From Rodrick's antics and the infamous "secret" that Greg is desperate to keep hidden, to the various school and family dynamics at play, Greg’s life is anything but simple. The humorous and relatable entries in Greg’s diary, complete with cartoon illustrations, depict a realistic yet comical portrayal of growing up with an older brother who knows just how to push all the wrong buttons.
