Personality
Manny Heffley is a fucking little cunt, if I was given the opportunity I would fucking stab him to death with a screwdriver and crush his dead body until it is nothing but a pile of bones.

Appearance

 * Manny looks like a small kid with three hairs, rabbit-like teeth and wears a white shirt, black shorts and white shoes.
 * In Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul (film), Manny has curly hair, a blue shirt and beige shorts.

Trivia

 * In the first book, after he yells "Bubby" at Greg on the stage, Greg says he's been able to keep that nickname quiet for 5 years, meaning Manny must be around 6 or 7. However, there is a storyline contradiction in Rodrick Rules, where Manny says that he is 3, and again in The Last Straw, where it says Manny has been held back from preschool three or four times, making him around 7 or 8.
 * In the online version, Manny is allergic to peaches. Greg also mentions this in The Ugly Truth.
 * The only members of the family who do not appear to like him are Aunt Cakey, Greg Heffley and Rodrick Heffley.
 * Manny is quite smart, as he knows how to change the password to both Greg's Net Kritterz account, the TV parental locks so he can watch whatever he likes. He also Spanish and the Snurple language fluently relatively fast.
 * Manny loves Bitter Apple Spray, so he probably likes sour and bitter food.
 * According to The Wimpy Kid Movie Diary, the main reason the producers picked twins was because they felt that twins would be easier to work with (on account that there would a backup should one refuse to cooperate).
 * Manny seems to be fond of keeping random animals as pets. In The Long Haul, he is attached to The Heffleys' Pig and repeatedly attempts to get him back. In The Getaway, he attempts three times to keep wild sea animals as pets: first with hermit crabs and snails, second with a baby sea turtle, and third with a Box Jellyfish. Surprisingly, in The Meltdown, he doesn't seem too concerned with the pig being lost.
 * He may be modeled after Igdoof's little brother.
 * Manny got brand new things when he was a baby, like pacifiers, and his bed looked even newer than Rodrick's.
 * Jeff Kinney said that he gave Manny his name because he originally didn't know it was short for Emmanuel. Rather, he thought it was meant to be an ultra-masculine name. "So, I wanted to have this tiny boy have this over-masculine name".
 * Manny barely appeares in Double Down and only makes a few cameos
