Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules Page #3

Chunky Cheese!

Westmore is absolutely packed

to the roof with talent.

The top prize is $1,000

and, of course,

the admiration of your

friends and neighbors.

This is huge. I gotta call

the band. We gotta practice.

This is gonna be

our big break!

Uh-uh-uh.

Wait a second.

Aren't you forgetting something? What?

I showered yesterday.

Smell.

Okay, okay.

Okay. Okay.

We agreed that you'd give

a drum lesson to Greg.

You were serious?

Who knows?

Maybe you guys

will really like it

and we can form a family band.

Hello, world, here's a

song that we're singing

Come on get happy

A whole lotta lovin'

is what we'll be bringing

We'll make you happy

Rodrick says

he's a professional musician,

but as far as I know

the only money he's made,

is when Dad gave him five

bucks once to stop playing.

When do we get to

play the real drums?

Like I'd ever

let you touch them!

Watch and learn,

earthworm!

Hey, I was thinking we

should enter the talent show.

I could do my magic act and

you could be my assistant.

Assistant? No way.

Doing magic tricks

is bad enough.

Assisting the guy

doing the tricks?

I'd never make it

to eighth grade.

What?

Hey, a cookie.

Manny,

what have you done?

I'm only three.

What's going on?

What did you do to him?

Nothing!

He ruined my video game.

Oh! He didn't do anything

on purpose. Did you, honey?

No, I didn't. No, he

didn't. He's only three.

I'm only three!

Okay, let's go, sweetie.

You want another cookie?

It's so unfair.

I have Rodrick making my

life a misery on one side,

and Manny attacking me

from the other.

And I'm the only one who seems

to get blamed for anything.

I wonder what it'd be like to have

a family that actually loves me.

Little boy!

We're a very rich couple with no

children and so much love to share.

Won't you come be

part of our family?

Finally! Someone I can

leave my billions to.

India? Why would

you go there?

India is fascinating. It's

the jewel of Southeast Asia.

My father has business to take care of,

so he's taking the whole family.

Can you bring me back a cobra?

I want to teach it to dance!

Wake up!

What are you guys doing over there?!

Get the ball! Get the ball, kick it!

Kick it!

Kick it!

Patty Farrell, you are the man!

Nice running, Heffley.

Just have to work on the direction.

Wow. Holly Hills is better than Bryce!

And he's an all-star!

Well, I'm sure

your soccer skills

made a great

impression on her.

Go strike while

the iron is hot.

You'll see.

When you come back

from India,

she'll be
