Characters: By Margie
Greg a safety patrol guard but got suspended for a week for chasing kindergarten kids with a worm

Rowley is also a safety patrol guard. He was accused of chasing kindergarteners with a worm on a stick, which was actually Greg wearing his coat. He then told the principal and Greg lost his duty on safety patrol. Rowley did not forgive Greg so they were not friends for a while. Greg was being forced by bullies to eat the Cheese (a stinky piece of rotted cheese left on the school blacktop), and received the honor of being picked Class Clown in the school yearbook.

Mr. Winsky is the school principal at Greg's school who made Rowley and Greg a part of safety patrol.

The Whirley Street kids are kids who bully Greg and Rowley during the winter. They also plotted to roll a giant snowball at the Whirley Street kids.

Fregley is Greg's neighbor, and an all-around strange boy. Fregley has freckles. He likes stuffing dirt in his ears and beating kites with a stick. He likes hanging out on his front lawn, wrestling, playing Twister, and chasing people around with a booger on his finger.
