In this episode of Professional Book Nerds, we’re diving into the world of Jeff Kinney, the mastermind behind the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series! Join us as we chat about his latest release, Diary of a Wimpy Kid 19: Hot Mess (out October 22)!

Get ready to laugh and learn as Jeff shares the inspiration behind his new book and the misadventures of Greg Heffley. We’ll also discuss the challenges of navigating the chaotic world of childhood, and how he turns those “hot mess” moments into relatable tales that resonate with readers of all ages.

So, grab your snacks, and settle in for a fun-filled episode that promises to be anything but boring. You won’t want to miss this opportunity to hear from the author who has kept kids—and adults—laughing for years. It’s time to get your diaries ready for a new chapter!
