Wimpy Kid series through ProQuest Ebook Central

Did you know we have access to eBooks through the ProQuest database? It’s available to everyone at Santa Rosa City Schools through the California State Library. Most notably, we have access to books 1 through 12, Diary of a Wimpy Kid. I’ve created a virtual library that links to books 1 through 12 of Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
