Jeff Kinney is so much like the goofy, self-centered, mischievous, yet loveable character he created, Greg Heffley. Jeff was made fun of by his older siblings, and felt like his little brother Patrick could get away with anything that he couldn't get away with when he was Patrick's age. But his childhood played a big role in who he is today.

Great book. Good job,Patrick!
I really like diary of a wimpy kid and decided to know more about the author. I love his books so much , most of my friends have it too . It is hilarious
When Jeff was young he was the youngest of 3 kids . But Jeff was so happy when he found out how he would be a big brother and not the smallest one. Jeff and Patrick ( the little brother ) loved to hang out , tell jokes , and tell stories . All through out Jeff's life he tried very hard to be a cartoonist.he got to be in newspapers and worked very hard to try. You probably didn't know this but it took him like 8 years to write diary of a wimpy kid. Finally after so many years someone liked his work ( diary of a wimpy kid) and what do u know!? It became a huge hit!. I recommend this book to all ages and I rate this book 4/5 stars - Pizzagirl7 😉
Like all the Who Was book, this entry to the series doesn't fail to disappoint! This biography of Jeff Kinny is a good read, and I was suprised about many things, such as Jeff’s friendship with the author of Big Nate.
It was good.
This book is really good! It was my first 'who is' book and I really enjoyed it! Its about Jeff Kinney and how he grew up. Did you know that Jeff Kinney had 3 other siblings? Or that Jeff Kinney grew up in Fort Washington, Michigan? If you want to know WAY more answers to interesting questions like these, make sure to check out this book!
This is the first "Who is" book that I have read. Jeff Kinney is one go my favorite authors and I enjoyed this book which was written by his brother.
