Academic english jeff kinney the ugly truth

vk.com/academic_english I’m very excited that you’re holding the Kindle edition of Diary of a Wimpy Kid in your hands When I read my first e-book on a Kindle, I was amazed at the possibilities Carrying a whole library around with me on a device I could fit in the palm of my hand? Amazing What’s been very rewarding to me as an author has been seeing kids carrying their dog-eared copies of Diary of a Wimpy Kid with them The Kindle allows kids to have the whole series at their fingertips, and the reading experience is crisp and clean every time with no chance of today's breakfast staining the pages Thank you for purchasing Diary of a Wimpy Kid on your Kindle I hope it gives you lots of laughs and you have as much fun reading it as I did writing it Jeff Kinney Tonight on the news they announced the winner of the Peachy Breeze Kid contest, and unfortunately I didn’t get picked But I know the kid who DID It was Scotty Douglas, who lives right down the street Don’t ask me why they picked him, because he couldn’t even get the slogan right in the audition But the people at Peachy Breeze should’ve done their research, because if they saw Scotty’s older brother, they might’ve thought twice 213 Last night Mom said now that her first semester of school is over, she’s going to put her academic career “on hold” for a while and spend more time with the family I can’t tell you how happy I was to hear that I’m glad things will finally be getting back to normal around here In fact, that’s been the whole problem this year There’s been a lot of change all of a sudden, and I really liked things the way they were BEFORE People like Dad and Uncle Joe have been getting on my case to act more responsible and start getting serious about my future But the truth is, I think I’m more of an Uncle Gary kind of guy 214 I guess I’m just not in a big rush to grow up right now And after Gammie showed me what’s in store over the next few years, I think I’m gonna take her advice and hang on as long as I can Tuesday Speaking of things getting back to normal, I decided it was time for me and Rowley to put the past couple of months behind us and get our friendship back on track Me and him have a really long history together, and there’s no point in throwing that away over something dumb 215 And to be honest with you, I can’t even remember what we were fighting about So after school today I went up to Rowley’s house to see if he wanted to hang out He was so happy to see me that it was kind of embarrassing Rowley asked me if we’d be “best friends forever,” and he gave me half of this matching locket he’s always tried to get me to wear 216 I told him I wasn’t gonna wear the locket, because it’s meant for girls But really, it’s that “forever” word that makes me nervous I told him maybe we could just take it one month at a time, and he seemed pretty satisfied with that I’ ll say one thing, though Rowley must’ve grown a full inch and a half since the summer, so who KNOWS how tall this kid is gonna be I figure it’s a good idea for me to stick with him, at least until we get to high school Because if he keeps growing at this rate, Rowley’s gonna be a good person to have at my side 217 ... nice enough, and we like the same video games But he pulls his pants all the way down when he uses the urinal, and I don’t know if I can ever get past that The only other kid my age who’s not... like EVERYONE is having more fun than me these days There are some kids in my grade who post their pictures online 13 And from the looks of things, they’re all having a WAY better time than...
