Claro que para Greg siempre ha sido fácil eludir los deseos de su papá. Sin embargo, cuando lo amenaza con enviarlo a una academia militar, se da cuenta de que tiene que ponerse las pilas.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Let’s face it: Greg Heffley will never change his wimpy ways. Somebody just needs to explain that to Greg’s father.
