About the Book

Life was better in the old days. Or was it? That's the question Greg Heffley is asking himself as his town voluntarily unplugs and goes electronics-free. Greg's parents are convinced life was better back in the old days, but Greg isn't so sure a life without electronics, central heating, and working plumbing sounds all that fun. Modern life has its conveniences, and Greg simply isn't cut out for an old-fashioned world — a puzzle made all the stranger by his parents' apparent nostalgia for the "good old days," complete with talk of three generations living under the same roof.

Things get further complicated at home when Greg's mom decides to bring his grandpa to live with them, forcing Greg to give up his room. With tension building both inside and outside the Heffley household, and despite his best efforts to avoid it, Greg is ultimately sent off to Hardscrabble Farm for a week-long school trip designed to teach hard work and appreciation for the great outdoors. Will Greg find a way to survive a week in the wild without his usual comforts, or is going "old school" simply too hard for a kid like him?
