Sample reading
I was reading the sample but it was only about 4 pages of actual reading. I have read this book before so I wanted to read it again but I couldn't.

If you haven't read it, you've made a big mistake! Read it now!
I am 9 and in third grade. I think the word frindle was very funny. Good use of pictures throughout the story. The characters were awesome! The writing was brilliant! The book was good in that it made you want to go back and finish it!

Great Book
I'm a 24 year old college student who was assigned this book for one of my ELED courses and I absolutely loved it. I will definately recommend this book to my students and my own children in the future.

A Classroom Review
Our classroom recently read the book Frindle by Andrew Clements. Our teacher chose to read us this book because she thought it was very funny and that many of us would like it. After reading the book, we really enjoyed it. We enjoyed it because it showed us that we can make a word up and it can mean something else. It also helped us learn about other words that people make and put in the dictionary. It also showed us how studnets can get in trouble if they don't obey their teacher. We learned that Nick has a talent for creating new words and being influential. Overall, we enjoyed this book and would recommend it to other kids to read.

I HATED THIS BOOK DO NOT READ!
The story line got too repetitive, and the plot got boring. I read this in 1st grade, and i still remember when i finally gave up reading because of the repetitive storyline and completely unrealistic circumstances.DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!

I remember the influences this book first gave me. Technically, it influenced my whole class, but you get the point. After my library teacher read this book to us (who is now a homeroom teacher [that doesn't really matter, but I thought I'd just throw that in there] ), we couldn't get over the word "frindle." We said "frindle" instead of "pen" for two weeks, but it didn't catch on because we were fourth graders so we couldn't use pens. This book was pretty fun to read though...

it was a fantastic book
I read this book and I would recommend it to my friends or anyone. And the reason why is because it shows how far your imagination can take you. I really liked how Nick would not give up even when Mrs. Granger was making it so difficult. Nick was very brave by not giving up on his believes. I think that other people that experience something like this they will give up. Well this is an example of why you should not give up on your dreams because they can come true if you work hard to make that dream come true.
When my teacher assigned me to read this book and when I started to read it I could not stop because it was very interesting. This book teaches that if you believe in something or have a dream and you what to make it come true if you work hard it will come true. I liked the author's writing style and I would defenetly like to read other books by him.2 out of 4 people found this review helpful.

You Cant Not Read It, Its Awesome
The Best Muga Muga
I am an 11 year old girl girl and i am in the fifth grade. If you love to read just like i do yuo will love reading a lot more if you read the book Frindle by Andrew Clements. Is Nick allen really a troublemaker? Well I'm not going to tell you. What does the word frindle mean? I'm not going to tell you that either. Just like the book Frindle, I made up a word. Now you know what Muga Muga means. You will have to figure out what frindle means by reading th ebook Frindle. I had to read this book in my language arts class. It was one of the best books that i ever read.2 out of 2 people found this review helpful.

This book is the best!
Pens! Pens! Frindles?
Nick Allen has always been creative. He made his classroom into Hawaii in February. But this time he creates something that affects the whole country: a new word (Frindle meaning pen). There is one problem, Nick's own English teacher. Watch Nick take twist and turns to keep using his word. But he just might lose it. read and find out.
I like this book because you have a special feeling that you can make a word too. Also once you start you'll be surging for more. You will have a strange but great feeling while reading Frindle.
I liked that Nick was trying to make a new word. I also liked how the author made it feel so real, but in reality not true.
I recommend this book to people who like to read books that actually feel real. If you like words or school or want to read an extraordinary book read Frindle. This one book. is truly amazing.
If you like Frindle you can read these other books by Andrew Clements: Room One, Lunch Money, No Talking, The Landry News, and The Janitor's Boy.~ by Hanil 92 out of 4 people found this review helpful.

Cute and good for all ages!!
My sixth-grade teacher read this to my literature class when I was in the sixth-grade (I am currently in eighth). I enjoyed it very much. While it is whimsical and humurous, it also presents a deeper issue- is authority always right? This is a great book to share with everyone, especially middle school-and elementary school-aged children. I reccomend it for all required reading lists.
