With the cold weather setting in and the stress of the Christmas holiday approaching, the Heffleys decide to escape to a tropical island resort for some much-needed rest and relaxation. A few days in paradise should do wonders for Greg and his frazzled family.
But the Heffleys soon discover that paradise isn’t everything it’s cracked up to be. Sun-poisoning, stomach troubles and venomous creatures all threaten to ruin the family’s vacation.
Can their trip be saved, or will this island getaway end in disaster?

My favourite character was Greg Heffley. My favourite bit was Manny had a box jellyfish and chucked it into the swimming pool.
This was a really good book. My favourite part was when Greg managed to get onto the wild side of the resort where kids aren’t allowed.
Yes
I thought the book was funny. Especially when Greg was in the swimming pool hiding.
I loved this book because it has got different adventures
It was about flying away in an aeroplane. It was funny.
My favourite character is Gregory Heffley as he has a great sense of humour. I would definitely recommend this book. It was very funny and actually made me laugh out loud which was a guarantee the book came with. Some of the scenes in the book were quite relatable which is a good characteristic to have because it helps you to understand the book better.
I liked the main character Greg the most. He was always coming up with funny jokes.
I would love to go on a holiday to a place like where Greg did. Greg’s dad was poor and had a stomachache.
It was really funny and entertaining ! I liked the part when manny’s doll got stuck in the escalator
I don't like it because Manny puts a dangerous jellyfish in the pool.
