The vice principal asks Greg if he would like to name his partner, but Greg refuses to avoid sending his friend into trauma and agrees to scrub the dye off himself. Scared of getting caught, Rowley leaves a note at the principal's desk anonymously saying "Me and Greg Heffley vandalized the school." Greg explains to the principal that he hadn't meant to vandalize the school. After narrowly escaping with only their facial shapes noted, the school administrators and police search for the culprits: they ask the whole student body to tell them who did it anonymously. When a string of conflicts and failures prevent them from making their paper a reality, they decide to hang up posters that advertise their bazaar in their town, starting with the school, but rain causes all the ink to bleed on the school's walls, leaving green stains that won't come off. However, they discover the newspaper's advertising fee is very expensive, so they try to establish their own newspaper, The Neighborhood Tattler.
They realize they need to advertise their bazaar and try to ask the local newspaper to do it. They first attempt to build a cardboard home-made version of Pac-Man, which fails to work. Greg tries some bad ideas for getting money until he finds out that he can buy "Drummies", tasty fried chicken snacks that are sold at his school's holiday bazaar, for less than the school sells them for, so he decides to start his own holiday bazaar and invites his best friend Rowley to do it with him. Greg's mom, Susan, doesn't want to give him money to spend on the site and says he has to earn money on his own. Greg starts playing an online game called "Net Kritterz" which is based around treating a virtual pet and requires paid features. Greg is afraid of this doll because he thinks that it might actually send information to Santa. In addition, his mother obtains a doll which she calls "Santa's Scout" that is meant to keep track of how he behaves and make his behavior better. The story starts before Christmas when Greg Heffley wants to behave well to get really good gifts for the holidays. An animated adaptation is in the works for Disney+. The book was followed by 2012's The Third Wheel. The book received widespread acclaim from critics. In 2012 Kinney won a "Best Author" Children's Choice Award from the Children's Book Council for Cabin Fever. Cabin Fever had a first printing run of six million copies, which Amulet Books stated was one of their most significant titles for that year. The book was released on November 15, 2011, the paperback edition was released on January 31, 2013, and was the fastest-selling book of 2011, giving him the third-strongest opening-week sales for a children's author.
Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Cabin Fever is a 2011 bestselling and award-winning children's book and the sixth book in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series, written by American author Jeff Kinney.
