2009 HC in excellent condition. The third book in the critically acclaimed and bestselling series takes the art of being wimpy to a whole new level. Let's face it: Greg Heffley will never change his wimpy ways. Somebody just needs to explain that to Greg's father. You see, Frank Heffley actually thinks he can get his son to toughen up, and he enlists Greg in organized sports and other "manly" endeavors. Of course, Greg is able to easily sidestep his father's efforts to change him. But when Greg's dad threatens to send him to military academy, Greg realizes he has to shape up . . . or get shipped out. (8-11 years)
From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "The Last Straw is book 3 and is part of a classic collection. My kids absolutely loved this series. It is fun and will have you laughing out loud. There are five books in this series some better than others, but they all have one thing in common, humor and the ability to make fun of oneself. The pictures and jokes just make it all that much better."; "My son is 8. We read it together and he thought it was hilarious."; "My daughter loves the series and loves this book! Held her interest for weeks and she still goes back and rereads the series."
