The Last Straw
Let’s face it: Greg Heffley will never change his wimpy ways. Somebody just needs to explain that to Greg’s father. You see, Frank Heffley actually thinks he can get his son to toughen up, and he enlists Greg in organized sports and other "manly” endeavors. Of course, Greg is easily able to sidestep his father’s efforts to change him. But when Greg’s dad threatens to send him to military academy, Greg realizes he has to shape up . . . or get shipped out.

Born in Fort Washington, Maryland, and raised in the Washington, D.C., area, Kinney’s early love for storytelling was fueled by his knack for drawing and creating characters who felt just as real as the people around him. But it wasn’t until his time at the University of Maryland, where he began drawing the comic strip "Igdoof" for the campus newspaper, that his dream of becoming a cartoonist began to take shape.
