“I can't divorce myself from my childhood. I try to write as much fiction as I possibly can, but there are so many things that are touchstones of my childhood like being on the swim team and playing soccer and the particularities of sports season and environments that make their way into my books.”

“Youre gonna grow up and marry some ice cream! Haha!”
Jeff Kinney, Rodrick Rules“I had a very normal, very typical American childhood. My father worked for the government at the Pentagon and my mother was an educator, so we had a very average upbringing, but that's helped me in my writing because I'm writing about ordinary things.”
Jeff Kinney“I think if everyone would write down the funny stories from their own childhoods, the world would be a better place.”
Jeff Kinney“To come out and meet kids who have my books in their hands is kind of amazing.”
Jeff Kinney“On the first day of school, you got to be real careful where you sit. You walk into the classroom and just plunk your stuff down on any old desk, and the next thing you know the teacher is saying, 'I hope you all like where you're sitting, because these are your permanent seats.'”

Jeff Kinney“I'm not really sure what makes a book a 'classic' to begin with, but I think it has to be at least fifty years old and some person or animal has to die at the end.”
Jeff Kinney“Zoo-Wee Mama!”
Jeff Kinney“Whenever you go with the cheaper option, you end up regretting it”
Jeff Kinney, Double Down“Jeff Kinney is tall and has a great smile, but don't be fooled, he's as slick as they come. A real player. And how he came up with a book that appeals to kids ages 8-13 baffles me. He's an unbelievably kind man with a great family.”
