Review: Pen vs Frindle

Frindle is about some kids that make an oath that says (From this day on and forever I will never say the word PEN again instead I will use the word FRINDLE and I will do everything possible so others will to.) They do stay by their oath their Language Teacher Mrs. Granger will do anything to make them say pen instead of friendly the main reason that they stay with the oath is because friendly relay means pen and they want their own word.

I think that if you like FUNNY books then this book is for you!

Summary: Big Deal
Review: Do you have a frindle I can use? A young 5th grade boy asked his teacher how words got in the dictionary. She told him how. That same day on the way home from school he found a pen on the ground he then deiced he did not like the word pen. He called a pen a frindle. Soon everyone in his class stared saying frindle instead of pen. His teacher was getting very angry at him. She made it a very big deal, she made kids stay after school if the used the word frindle. It was in the newspaper and the news. This book was very enjoyable, it was a page turner. One thing that I found was a little confusing was it switched topics very fast. This author writes very well. I would recommend this book to all ages. If you enjoy this book you might want to read A School Story.

Summary: Can you make a Word?
Review: Clements writes a funny and fast-paced story about a 5th grader named, Nick Allen. Nick Allen is a typical, 'class clown,' always trying to distract his teachers. One day, Nick's Language Arts teacher, Mrs. Granger, teaches the students about the dictionary and the origin of words. This strikes Nick's interest in coming up with his own word. Nick begins to call a ball point pen a frindle, and before long his friends are using the word. The word, frindle, does not stop there; instead it spreads like wild fire among the school and even the town. The teachers are outraged by the popularity of the word that Nick made up. Even Mrs. Granger gives out detentions because of the word, frindle. Mrs. Granger and Nick continue to butt heads throughout the book, until finally they learn to appreciate one another. Will the popularity of the word, frindle land it a spot in the dictionary?

I enjoyed Clements clever and witty book, 'Frindle.' Children would find this book hard to put down, like I did, with its constant and easy to understand humor. They can read about a boy who takes on his teacher, his school and the world in a way, with his word invention. He is a student that is ordinarily seen as the class clown, who chooses to go against the grain. Although, he may have invented the word out of pure orneriness, he did prove to be very determined and persistent in keeping the word in circulation. This book will encourage the reader, no matter what their role is in the classroom.
Although some of the situations in the book seem wild and highly unrealistic as an adult, kids would be easily captivated by them. The majority of the book seems very realistic and also very easy for children to relate to. A good number of children have probably tired to invent a word or an object at some point in their life, so this story will hit home for them. If not, the mischief and ornery nature of Nick Allen will indeed hit home.

Review: I liked the book Frindle because it is so funny you don't want to put the book down. Nick has met a new opponent, his language arts teacher. He tries to stop her from giving his class homework. When Nick's friend Janet finds a pen on the ground, Nick invents a new word, frindle. Soon the whole town starts saying the word frindle instead of pen. As the word frindle becomes a habit it is added to the dictionary. The word frindle ends up making Nick a rich yong man.

Summary: Fabulous Frindle
Review: Extra! Extra! Read about Frindle.It's about a fifth grade boy named Nicholas Allen and his battle with his Launguage Arts teacher, Mrs. Granger.Nick is a very creative boy. He makes up a new word Frindle, which is substituted for the word pen.It was so good that I hope that it will be read by other readers.Also I hope that they make a second one because Andrew Clements knows how to make a mysterious book that you won't know what will happen next. Read this book and see how far Nick will go with his new word.
