Reading Response Of Frindle: By Andrew Clements

A boy named Nicholas Allen(Nick), which is full of great ideas, invented a new word called frindle, to replace the word pen. He invented frindle while he was in fifth grade, when his teacher Mrs. Granger said that what words mean is decided by us, humans. He got the whole of fifth grade to say frindle instead of pen. Things started going haywire when Mrs. Granger started keeping kids in her classroom after school as a punishment for saying frindle instead of pen. By now, the country knows the word, and it is spreading. Nick goes on TV shows and becomes sort of a celebrity. The word is spreading all over the world, and there's nothing Nick can do to stop it.



I really liked this book, and I totally recommend it!
