Happy Meal

Happy Meals are kids meals that are sold at McDonald's in the real world. A Diary of a Wimpy Kid Happy Meal promotion was in the United Kingdom from September 14–October 18, 2016 as a part of McDonald's "Happy Readers" program. In August 2019, the same promotion was done in Australia. One of eight small books was included in each meal.

In the UK, the Happy Meal boxes had a voucher, valid from September 14–November 1, 2016, that a person could take to a participating WHSmith store (or Easons in Northern Ireland) to pay one euro for Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Awesome Activity Book. Each voucher also had a free download code for the eBook, The Best of Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
