Frindle is the story of a boy's
battle for a new word in the face of a lot of opposition from
his teachers.
The story is set around the
community of Lincoln Elementary school in the USA and a crisis
comes when the children change the word pen to frindle.
This narrative will appeal to
children with a wild imagination and teachers who want to
teach etymology.
Most of our class felt the book
was OK but we wouldn't recommend it to our friends.
