"Terrifyingly fun! Delivers big thrills and even bigger laughs."--Jeff Kinney, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Diary of a Wimpy Kid

Diary of a Wimpy Kid meets The Walking Dead in this very funny post-apocalyptic graphic novel for middle-grade readers.

Ever since the monster apocalypse hit town, average thirteen year old Jack Sullivan has been living in his tree house, which he's armed to the teeth with catapults and a moat, not to mention video games and an endless supply of Oreos and Mountain Dew scavenged from abandoned stores. But Jack alone is no match for the hordes of Zombies and Winged Wretches and Vine Thingies, and especially not for the eerily intelligent monster known only as Blarg. So Jack builds a team: his dorky best friend, Quint; the reformed middle school bully, Dirk; Jack's loyal pet monster, Rover; and Jack's crush, June. With their help, Jack is going to slay Blarg, achieve the ultimate Feat of Apocalyptic Success, and be average no longer! Can he do it?

Told in a mixture of text and black-and-white illustration, this is the perfect book for any kid who's ever dreamed of starring in his or her own comic book or video game. And then grab the sequel, The Last Kids on Earth and the Zombie Parade, now a New York Times bestseller!

Is it a good book? I'm currently reading the stuff by Cassandra Clare or Sarah J. Mass. Do the books compare?

This book is about a boy named Jack and he's adopted by these people who really didn't like him that much and just wanted him to do work. They lived in a neighborhood and his friend lived on the other side of town. Jack had a tree house and he had to kill zombies so he took an old baseball bat and put spikes on it to kill them. They had walkie talkie's but Jack's broke so he needed to find a little kit to fix it. But there was a gigantic monster he had to kill. But he didn't kill it and it picked him up and then he stabbed it with his baseball bat in the eye. There was a bully in school before the zombie apocalypse. He lived in the woods and bullied Jack and his friend. Jack and his friend got a car and made it zombie proof and they could drive over zombies and kill them. They found the bully in a parking lot and he used his fists to kill zombies. He was a really big tough guy. All three of them teamed up to try to get to the school because Jack wanted to save a girl that he liked. They camped out in a tree house and got supplies. There were other monsters they had to fight along the way. They got the girl finally. There was giant zombie ball that went straight at them. They ran and finally got away from the zombie ball. But the girl didn't need saving because she was just fine. They got her to come back with them. And they killed zombies. This book was really good and I really liked it. They went around killing zombies and making new friends but was also kinda hard.
