The Wimpy Kid Movie Diary ... How Greg Heffley went Hollywood

Have you ever wondered how they make a movie out of a book? Author Jeff Kinney didn't know either, but discovering how Greg Heffley and everyone else from his bestselling series, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, got turned into a live-action movie by 20th Century Fox, was an adventure he definitely wanted to share.

Complete with still shots from the film, script pages, storyboard sketches, costume designs and all new original art from Jeff, The Wimpy Kid Movie Diary is a must-have for every Wimpy Kid fan.

Jeff Kinney has worked as a newspaper designer and computer programmer, and at other occupations that do not hinge on physical prowess. He is now a number 1 New York Times bestselling author. In 2009, Jeff was named one of Time magazine's 100 Most Influential People in the World. He spent his childhood in the Washington, D.C., area and moved to New England in 1995. Jeff lives in southern Massachusetts with his wife and their two sons.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid was his first book, closely followed by Rodrick Rules and The Last Straw. The fourth book in the series, Dog Days, was published in late 2009. 

Diary of a Wimpy Kid the Movie is due for release in Australia on 2 September 2010 (not 1 April as previuosly advised ... Oooops sorry!).
