These are Garrett's latest FAVORITE books. He stays up until all hours of the night reading ---tonight he came down to tell us his favorite part of the nights read.
Greg, the wimpy kid, posted a Boy Scout entry, it goes like this:
"I knew I needed to do something quick to convince Dad that I didn't NEED to go to Military Academy. So, I told him I wanted to join the Boy Scouts.
Dad seemed really enthusiastic about the idea, so that was a relief.
Besides trying to find a way to get Dad off my back I have a couple of other reasons for wanting to join the Boy Scouts. Number one, Boy Scout meetings are on Sundays, so that means I can quit soccer. And number two, it's about time I started getting some respect from other kids at school.
There are actually TWO Boy Scout Troops in my town: Troop 24 which is right in our neighborhood and Troop 133 which is about 5 miles down the road. Troop 133 is always having hot dog roasts and pool parties and stuff like that. Troop 24 is constantly out doing community service projects on the weekends. So I'm definitely a Troop 133 kind of guy."
In my opinion, any book you need to pry out of your child's hands so they will go to bed at 11 PM is a GOOD read.
I'm glad Garrett's reading, I'm glad Garrett's reading about Scouting, I'm glad Garrett is happy!!!

These are Spencer's absolute favorites, too. I LOVE it when my kids want to read. It makes me feel like a good parent when my kids have their nose in a book.
That is a good sign... having them hide in their room late at night reading good books!
Madison and Megan LOVE the Wimpy Kid books...they are fun. ~Rene
