Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Cabin Fever by Jeff Kinney, read by Dan Russell. Greg Heffley is in big trouble. School property has been damaged, and Greg is the prime suspect.

Greg knows that when the snow melts he is going to have to face the music, but could any punishment be worse than being stuck inside with your family?

But he knows enough to record his daily thoughts in a manly journal - not some girly diary. In a unique novel brimming with laugh-out-loud moments, Greg chronicles his first turbulent year of middle school.

Whatever you do, don't ask Greg about his summer vacation because he definitely doesn't want to talk about it.... It's a brand new year and a brand new journal and Greg is keen to put the humiliating (and secret!) events of last summer firmly behind him. But someone knows everything - someone whose job it is to most definitely not keep anything embarrassing of Greg's private - his big brother, Rodrick. How can Greg make it through this new school year with his not-quite-cool reputation intact?

The third book in the #1 New York Times best-selling series from Jeff Kinney, The Last Straw is sure to please young readers.

The Valentine’s Day dance at Greg’s school has turned his world upside down. As Greg scrambles to find a date, he’s worried he’ll be left out in the cold on the big night. His best friend, Rowley, doesn’t have any prospects either but that’s small consolation. Then an unexpected twist gives Greg a partner for the dance and leaves Rowley the odd man out. But a lot can happen in one night, and in the end, you never know who’s going to be lucky in love...
