Hi! I hope you’re having a wonderful day today!
It’s that time of the week where I post about a book I am eagerly anticipating. This weekly event is called Waiting on Wednesday and is hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine.
This week I’m spotlighting the soon to be newest installment of Jeff Kinney’s Diary of a Wimpy Kid series, The Third Wheel! If you don’t already know (you must not know any middle schoolers) this book series is a pretty big deal. I seriously can’t keep them on my shelves, which is fine with me! A new Wimpy Kid book means more of my students reading and an increase in my circulation! You can’t go wrong with that! Seriously, if Jeff Kinney just keeps writing new additions to this series, my job will be that much easier! (Thanks Mr. Kinney!)
So, this new Wimpy Kid title will answer some serious questions:
Will Greg finally get a girlfriend?
Can Manny become any less annoying?
Will Rodrick ever give Greg a break?
We can’t wait to find out!
I know my students are going to be asking me about this book as soon as school starts in August, which means I’ll have three and a half months of telling them that The Third Wheel is scheduled to be released by Amulet Books on November 13, 2012 (which also happens to be my birthday!).
Are you waiting on a specific book this week?! Leave a comment with the title – I always love to hear about some upcoming new reads!
My sister loves these books, and she doesn’t read so that is saying something! I am going to have to read them someday!
Good pick. My WoW.

This reminds me of Captain Underpants..my son couldn’t read them fast enough when he was in the fourth grade! Will add this to the list for books for my nephew. Thanks for visiting my WoW
My nieces are obsessed with these books at the moment.
