Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days Page #4

out of black rubber.

And Artie... his underwear,

made out of horsehair.

What are you doing?

It's spring, 1861!

We're trying to outflank Porterfield's

armies! There's no video games! Come on!

Okay, okay.

All right. Now, the deciding factor...

the reason we win this battle...

is we hold the element of surprise.

No, we need the element of surprise!

- That kid ruined everything!

- Let's get him!

Where are you going?

It's a reenactment! We won!

Hey, Greg.

I can't make it to the book club.

My mom's taking me to the country club.

She said I could invite you.

No, thanks.

Let's crack open Little Women

and see what's up with the girls.

I'll be right over!

We're going to have so much fun!

If you say so.

Up!

Up! Up!

Up! Come on!

Davey, you call that a push-up?

- Hello, Mrs. Jefferson.

- Hi, Amy.

Crowded today?

The nice weather really brought people out.

Amy wasn't kidding!

It is crowded today.

This is crowded?

Care for a smoothie?

- They bring stuff to you?

- Yes, they do.

Sorry!

I guess I do like being outside...

when I'm outside at a country club.

- It's Holly Hills!

- She's always here.

She's a member.

And you didn't think maybe

you should tell me that?

Now it's step... swing... catch it up high.

Bye! And remember,

work on your forehand.

- Hey, Holly.

- Hey, guys!

I thought you were going to call me.

I was going to,

but... then I realized I'd see you here.

So, what are you up to?

I'm helping the tennis coach.

I give lessons to little kids.

That's so weird. We're all about tennis!

Cool! We should play sometime.

Actually, I've never played...

We'd love to play!

What about tomorrow at eleven?

Eleven's perfect.

- See you tomorrow!

- Tomorrow it is!

And that's how you improve your summer.

No, no.

More. More. Oh, come on, Manny!

Hi, Mom.

Somebody looks like they actually had fun.

Hello!

Hello.

- Just the guy I'm looking for.

- Me?

My office is offering a summer internship.

And I signed you up for it!

- What's an internship?

- Well...

You'll come to my office every day...

but you'll have your own responsibilities.

It's like a job.

- Do I get paid?

- No.

You got me a non-paying job?

You can be work buddies!

How long till we go home?

We got here eight minutes ago!

It sounds really great, but...

This is awkward.

It's just that... I already got a job.

What? You got a job?

Yeah!

Rowley invited me to the country club...

and I saw a "Help Wanted" sign.

I went to the manager and he hired me.

He said he liked my pluck.
