  I'll be famous one day, but for now I'm stuck in middle school with a bunch of morons. 
   
  Being a kid can really stink. And no one knows this better than Greg Heffley, who finds himself thrust into middle school, where undersized weaklings share the hallways with kids who are taller, meaner, and already shaving.  
   
  In Diary of a Wimpy Kid, author and illustrator Jeff Kinney introduces us to an unlikely hero. As Greg says in his diary: 
   
  Just don't expect me to be all "Dear Diary" this and "Dear Diary" that. 
   
  Luckily for us, what Greg Heffley says he won’t do and what he actually does are two very different things.

  The Hills of Home - Was It...

  The Hills of Home by Alfred Coppel - In the quiet beauty of a late-summer riverbank, a soldier returns to the place that shaped him. But the peace of home hides memories and truths he can’t escape. 
  The river ran still and deep, green and gray in the eddies with the warm smell of late summer rising out of the slow water. Madrone and birch and willow, limp in the evening quiet, and the taste of smouldering leaves.... 
  It wasn’t the Russian River. It was the Sacred Iss. The sun had touched the gem-encrusted cliffs by the shores of the Lost Sea of Korus and had vanished, leaving only the stillness of the dusk and the lonely cry of shore birds. 
  From downstream came the faint sounds of music. It might have been a phonograph playing in one of the summer cabins with names like Polly Ann Roost and Patches and Seventh Heaven, but to Kimmy it was the hated cry of the Father of Therns calling the dreadful Plant Men to their feast of victims borne into this Valley Dor by the mysterious Iss.
