The Third Wheel

The comic-style drawings add so much personality to Greg's character. I wonder what inspired the balance between text and illustrations in this series.

Greg's awkward schemes and misadventures make me laugh because they feel so real. Are there moments in the book that made others feel seen in their own teenage struggles?

The family dynamics seem both funny and genuine. I'm curious whether readers see it as lighthearted caricature or a reflection of real family life.
