About this event

Join us online for a hilarious, action-packed virtual conversation with #1 international bestselling author Jeff Kinney as he introduces the 21st book in his globally beloved series, Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Fight or Flight. Greg Heffley is about to learn that surviving middle school is no easy feat. In Fight or Flight, Greg’s hard-earned expertise on navigating the rough-and-tumble world of middle school is put to the test.

When a secret binder filled with Greg’s notes on the school’s biggest bullies falls into the wrong hands, his world quickly begins to unravel. Now it’s a race against time before the truth comes out. Will Greg throw in the towel—or go down swinging?

Complete with Kinney's signature comic illustrations and sharp, laugh-out-loud humor, this latest installment captures the awkward, unpredictable realities of growing up that have made Greg Heffley an icon for generations of readers.
