Publisher's summary

In Big Shot, book 16 of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series from number-one international best-selling author Jeff Kinney, Greg Heffley and sports just don't mix. After a disastrous field day competition at school, Greg decides that when it comes to his athletic career, he's officially retired. But after his mom urges him to give sports one more chance, he reluctantly agrees to sign up for basketball. 

Tryouts are a mess, and Greg is sure he won't make the cut. But he unexpectedly lands a spot on the worst team. As Greg and his new teammates start the season, their chances of winning even a single game look slim. But in sports, anything can happen. When everything is on the line and the ball is in Greg's hands, will he rise to the occasion? Or will he blow his big shot? 

See the Wimpy Kid World in a whole new way with the help of Greg Heffley's best friend in the instant number-one best sellers Diary of an Awesome Friendly Kid: Rowley Jefferson's Journal, Rowley Jefferson's Awesome Friendly Adventure, and Rowley Jefferson's Awesome Friendly Spooky Stories!

THE BEST!

I have been a wimpy kid fan for as long as I remember! Wimpy kid fans all over the world will agree that every book in this series is entertaining and fun 🤩!
Although it was a bit short, I was very happy when it was released! (I kept waiting for it since last week) I hope Jeff Kinney is able to cook up some new stories for this series!!! ✌️
