About this audiobook

Greg Heffley and his family are getting out of town.
With the cold weather and the stress of the approaching holiday season, 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 critters all threaten to ruin the family’s vacation. Can their trip be saved, or will this island getaway end in disaster?

Ratings and reviews

These books should be narrated by kids. Why on Earth do they have a grown man reading this is beyond me. Kids what to hear this in their own voices (I mean a kids voice). Stupid.

I hate that the book cost but overall this is a great book. I enjoyed reading this for like 3 days. I would love to read it more than once. Thank you

I have the book in my bedroom somewhere and read the book its pretty good but I can't understand what's happening because no pictures but I would rate it 5 stars anyways because its good
