In Jeff Kinney's 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days,' Greg Heffley faces his worst summer yet. While his friends enjoy their break, Greg is stuck with his family, navigating his dad's expectations for outdoor activities versus his own desire for video games and air conditioning. Things take a turn when a new family pet, a dog named Sweetie, adds to the chaos. From embarrassing pool incidents to disastrous attempts at relaxation, Greg's diary chronicles the hilarious misadventures and awkward moments that make his summer unforgettable, or rather, incredibly memorable for all the wrong reasons. This fifth installment perfectly captures the trials of growing up.
