Greg thinking there were secret cameras following him and that his parents were robots sounds like something weirdly satisfying to explain.  This was a humor filled book and much like the others it was nostalgic and lighthearted.

Moderate: Bullying

Minor: Ableism, Fatphobia, and Transphobia

Death of a grandparent, mild gaslighting from a sibling.

Given that this was written for preteen kids, all of the above content warnings are very mild in nature and are written in a gently comedic style.
