Making 2010 Wimpy

December 28, 2009
By Michael Cader

One of the 2009’s sales all-stars announced a new book for early next year: Jeff Kinney’s The Wimpy Kid Movie Diary will have a one-day national lay-down on Tuesday, March 16. It releases a couple of weeks ahead of Fox’s Wimpy Kid movie, and “goes behind the scenes to humorously chronicle the making of the film.” Kinney says “I was fascinated by the filmmaking process, and I thought my readers might be as wide-eyed and interested as I was. In The Wimpy Kid Move Diary, I’ve tried to tell the story of how a movie gets made in a way that will entertain and inform kids.” There are over 27 million Diary of a Wimpy Kid books in print.
