'Diary of a wimpy kid dog days' Jeff Kenney
Summary of page 1-32:
In the book so far it tells us how Greg is not really enjoying his summer holidays because he hates going outside to play sports or go the local pool. In his mind he thinks the best thing to do on the summer holidays is to sit down on the couch, close the blinds, get some chips and do some serious gaming all day and every day. One day in the story Greg had his best friend Rowley over for a sleep over. Greg and Rowley had to wait for Greg's mum and Dad to go asleep so then they could watch a horror movie called the muddy. When the movie had finished Rowley and Greg got so scared they went into the bathroom to sleep in there with the lights on.
Difficult words: Out of the pages I have read so far I cannot find a difficult word.
Connection: There is kind of a connection with me and Greg because sometimes I like to just play video games but I would rather go to the pool etc.
Inference:
Greg: Greg is lazy boy who would just like to sit down all day with the blinds closed and play video games.
Question: The question that I would like to ask is Greg ever going to get over video games.
Prediction: My prediction is that Greg will stop playing video games to go and hang out with the girl he likes Holly Hills.
