Hands down, our favorite author is Jeff Kinney. Wimpy Kid books are treasured friends, who both kids turn to time and again. Today was release day for the latest book (Big Shot) AND the day of the author's book signing at Hooray for Books. But instead of just doing a Covid-safe pick-up-a-book-event, Kinney put together a drive-through celebration of Greg's world. We had a giant soccer ball kicked off the front of our car, drove right over the stinky cheese, and tossed an enormous basketball into the hoop through the sun roof after grabbing our signed book (and a photo with Jeff!) from a lacross stick basket carried by the author himself. We were all pretty excited to meet him (and nervous about being characters in his next book) and thought the event lived up to the hype. Hooray for Books! Hooray for Wimpy Kid!
