Diary of a Wimpy Kid # 11: Double Down

　　極大的重擔不斷累積，讓葛瑞快要喘不過氣。為什麼呢？這一切的一切都要從葛瑞的媽媽說起。葛瑞媽媽希望她的寶貝兒子，能夠放下所有的3C產品，體驗「不插電」生活，而這當然包含了葛瑞最喜歡的電動，因為葛瑞媽媽覺得他兒子的腦袋，之所以會變成沒營養的玉米糊，就是因為這些電玩遊戲。她殷切期待葛瑞能更向她所謂的“創造力”靠攏。

　　彷彿這一切都還不夠糟，即將到來的萬聖節和神出鬼沒的鬼怪，更是嚇壞葛瑞了。還好，老天有眼，讓葛瑞從一包惡作劇「蟲蟲軟糖」得到了靈感。如果他拍了一部叫好又叫座的電影，他有沒有可能會名利雙收並同時擺脫他老媽？這個想要「一箭雙雕」的計劃，是否會實現？還是會讓現況「雪上加霜」？(文/博客來編譯)

　　The pressure's really piling up on Greg Heffley. His mom thinks video games are turning his brain to mush, so she wants her son to put down the controller and explore his 'creative side'.

　　As if that's not scary enough, Halloween's just around the corner and the frights are coming at Greg from every angle.

　　When Greg discovers a bag of gummy worms, it sparks an idea. Can he get his mom off his back by making a movie . . . and will he become rich and famous in the process? Or will doubling down on this plan just double Greg's troubles?
