 * --Rowley Jefferson

Rowley Jefferson  is  Greg Heffley's forced best friend and deuteragonist in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. He has overprotective parents who aren't fond of  Greg 's behavior, assuming that he is a bad influence. He was the main antagonist in  Diary of a Wimpy Kid, but is then often seen as an anti-hero in the series, despite being the  main character 's best friend, as he often does idiotic,nonsense things to get  Greg  in trouble while he gets off scot-free. Despite this idiotic behavior, though, Rowley always wishes the best for everyone. {| class="toc" id="toc"

Personality
Rowley is an immature boy in several ways. For example,he sleeps with his stuffed toys. He likes his Dinoblazer Action Figures and he even quit his popular comic Zoo-Wee-Mama because he needed time to play with his Dinoblazer Action Figures. At Christmas, he gets many childish things and he even gives Greg childish toys and he once even gave him a Big-Wheel. In the Rodrick Rules movie after watching "The Foot", he got scared and had to get his parents to take him home. In the book he kept his eyes closed  the entire time while watching Muddy Hand. In Dog Days, when he was sleeping he got a nightmare that there was a chicken under the bed, which made him scream out loud. His parents calmed him down and Rowley went and slept in their room. In the movie, he goes with his parents to close by places. If not, then he'd have to follow Greg Heffley. In the book, he went in kiddie rides for little kids while Greg was in the Cranium Shaker. In the Dog Days Mr jefferson scolded him for going to scary rides. When it's his birthday, he goes in childish places and invites kids in, from his karate class who are 7 years old and is happy even when he gets childish toys. He is also a fun, loving boy, that many like more than Greg Heffley usually. He sometimes has idiotic behavior which gets Greg Heffley and others into trouble.In Cabin Fever he got a habit of saying "LOL" instead of laughing.
