Rowley Jefferson's Awesome Friendly Adventure: Jeff Kinney (Rowley Jefferson’s Journal)

Product Information

In the online book, Rowley is said to own a PlayStation with 42 games. However, in the movie, Rowley is shown to have a Wii, meaning that he possibly upgraded his console. Great-Uncle Bruce was Greg's great-uncle. He is a deceased character who is mentioned in Cabin Fever and The Third Wheel. Greg is presented with a rather luxurious blanket as a Christmas gift, only to be repelled by it upon learning that it had formerly belonged to Great Uncle Bruce before his death. In The Third Wheel, Greg uses Great Uncle Bruce's old cologne on Valentine's Day, which ends up attracting some old ladies. Garrett "Gary" Heffley (also known as Gray Heffley in Wimpy Wonderland) is Greg's uncle and the youngest brother of Frank and Joe, who has been married four times. He was first mentioned in The Last Straw when Greg said he was out of clean laundry and was going to have to wear a shirt he got from Gary's first wedding. In the 2017 adaptation of The Long Haul, the Heffleys gained the pig in a similar way to the 9th book. After causing havoc in a hotel room, and nearly leaping onto a busy highway, the Heffleys decide to get rid of the pig by donating it to a petting zoo, much to Manny's dismay. Later on, when Manny can speak fluent Spanish, he directs a helpful towing company to the petting zoo, reuniting him with the pig. Christopher "Chris" Brownfield is one of Greg's friends and is shown to have been a great mosquito magnet while hanging out with Greg in the summer. However, Greg does not see him as a close friend because he is "not a school-year friend". Later in The Ugly Truth, he is on Greg's team for a game and hides behind a soda machine after the teachers threaten to call all of their parents.

Given estimates made based off of illustrations of him, Rowley Jefferson is most likely between 4' 11" (149.86 cm) and 5' 1" (154.94 cm) tall. However, this is only conjecture, as his height has never been stated definitively within the series.In Diary of an Awesome Friendly Kid: Rowley Jefferson's Journal, he has a very different appearance and it is unknown if they are the same person. In this book, Rowley explains that he called his grandfather "Bampy" because he could not say "Grandpa" when he was two. As he got older, he was not allowed to change what he called him, and as his grandfather got older, he only said "Bampy", suggesting he was struggling with insanity and had to be put down. A year later, Rowley described an experience that made him believe he encountered Bampy's ghost while staying at his old log cabin.

He is the main character of his own spin-off called Diary of an Awesome Friendly Kid, which also had two sequels called Rowley Jefferson's Awesome Friendly Adventure and Rowley Jefferson's Awesome Spooky Stories. In the film series, Fregley is portrayed by Grayson Russell in the first three installments, and by Christian Convery in the 2021 animated film. However, Rowley may have gotten rid of it, especially in Dog Days and The Ugly Truth when he and Greg were ex-best friends, and the only reason he gotten that diary was to be like him. He shows little interest in sports until Dog Days, where he is found playing tennis with Rowley and golf with a caddy.

Aunt Dorothy is Greg's great aunt and the wife of Charlie, who always kisses him on the lips. Greg's mother, Susan, says it is rude to wipe off the kisses Dorothy gives him, but Greg wipes his face on the nearest available curtain when no one is looking. She is overweight and sometimes passes gas loudly. The character appears in the online book wherein he is renamed as Darnell Washington and his manner of starting the Cheese Touch is that of him tripping over and accidentally touching the cheese.

In the online book, Rowley is said to own a PlayStation with 42 games. However, in the movie, Rowley is shown to have a Wii, meaning that he probably upgraded his console.Darren and Marcus Woodley are two brothers who always get into fights. They first appeared in The Last Straw, where they went camping with Frank. Marcus wets his pants after getting hit in the stomach with a football by Darren. Marcus bites Darren for laughing at him, resulting in Darren having to go to the emergency room. The brothers return in Big Shot, where they play on a basketball team with Greg. Although his family is vaguely referenced in the books, the Warrens (known as the Swanns in the online book) are what got Frank thinking of making Greg more manly. In the books, Mr. Warren is Frank's boss. Frank is deeply jealous of the Warrens. In stark contrast to Greg and his brothers, the Warrens' children are shown to be athletic and sporty. In the third film, Stan, the father of the family, is shown to be a neighbor of the Heffleys. He had a minor childhood rivalry with Frank, that they appear to have gotten over as adults. In the movie, Mr. Warren is the troop master of the Wilderness Explorers and invites everyone over for an Independence Day party. They only appear in The Last Straw. In the film adaptation of The Long Haul, Stan was replaced as Frank’s boss by a woman named Julie, who makes a brief voice cameo in the film when it is revealed that Frank forgot to ask Julie for time off from work, which results in Julie calling Frank on his phone. Since Stan has not appeared in any of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books since The Last Straw, it is implied that he retired or quit, which is why Frank now has a different boss. However, Julie has not appeared in any of the books.

In the German translations, Rowley's name is Rupert. Coincidentally, Greg alludes to this in Diary of an Awesome Friendly Kid: Rowley Jefferson's Journal when he says he will change Rowley's role into a made-up kid named Rupert who is an overexaggerated parody. Gerald is Susan's cousin from California who lived with the Heffleys for a few months after Greg was born, which he embarrassingly reminds Greg of every time he sees him. Maddox Selsam is a boy who lives in the middle of the woods, who only appears in Double Down. Maddox is not allowed to have any screen time and does not have a TV at his house. He enjoys playing with his Lego and practicing his violin. He met Greg in Double Down when he found Greg's balloon for the Balloon Brigade at his school. Susan only likes him because he doesn't have electronics in his house and wants Maddox to be a role model for Greg; however, Maddox was rude to Greg. She feels disappointed that he and Greg didn't "hit it off", although she knew she had made a mistake about Maddox, she chose to double down and be disappointed in her son. It is never revealed what country Rowley went to on his trip to South America in the book series, but the online book states that he went to Brazil for his trip to South America. It is said in the first film that Rowley went to Guatemala.a b c Kinney, Jeff (2007). Diary of a Wimpy Kid(Old School). Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Amulet Books. ISBN 978-0-8109-9313-6.
