I’ve got a (9 yr old) kid that loves the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. But it’s terrible. The main character is a terrible friend, and a poor role model. The character frequently calls people stupid or morons, makes fun of kids outside the norm, and has weird 90s views of how boys and girls interact.
Can anyone suggest a series that their kid enjoyed for a similar audience? Even better if there are lots of them.
Haha well that’s the first option if I can find it!
Personally I am more likely to read on a screen, and that screen will be my phone, but that’s because I tend to read most away from home and don’t want to carry a book around with me. But for the kids, a physical book is better. Even if I’m reading to them I’d rather read from a book than the kobo or my phone.

Haha I wouldn’t stoop that low for a book, if I have to I’ll download it to the kobo.
To paraphrase Stan Lee
Books are like lovers.
I’d rather hold one in my hands than see it on a screen.
But that’s me!

I’d love to chat more, but I gotta catch my bus.
