The novel begins with Greg getting ready for his first day in middle school, when he is teased by his older brother, Rodrick because his mother bought him his school supplies. Greg also has a spoiled little brother called Manny, who gets everything he wants and never gets in trouble. His father Frank does not enjoy Greg's lifestyle of playing video games all day instead of going outside and playing sports.

During his first day of school, Greg is forced to sit with the school nerd called , whom he tries to keep distance from. He isn't sure whether his friend will be able to fit in in middle school, because he considers him to be immature. As a way to boost their popularity, Greg and Rowley decided to join the wrestling team, but Greg quits the team after he loses a match against Fregley.

On Halloween, Greg and Rowley go out for trick-or-treating, but they are bullied by teens who spray them both with a water-filled fire extinguisher. Greg threatens them by telling them that he is going to call the cops, but the teens begin chasing them. Greg and Rowley both hide at Greg's grandmother's house until the teenagers leave.

During Christmas break, Greg and Rowley decide to play a game in which Rowley has to ride a bike while Greg tries to knock him off. While playing, one of the balls that Greg throws gets under the front wheel, causing Rowley to fall off and break his arm. When he returns to school with a cast, the girls started nursing him (carrying his books, etc) which makes Greg jealous. After Rowley heals up, he and Greg join the safety patrol in which they walk the younger kids to their homes.
