Frindle

Nicholas Allen has plenty of ideas. When he ends up in Mrs. Granger’s language arts class, he has his best idea ever and decides to create his own word…FRINDLE! Before long, Nick’s word creates a buzz in his school, his town, and then to his surprise, it spreads all around the country. A power struggle erupts with the strict Mrs. Granger, but will the word “Frindle” win?

Based on the multiple award-winning best-selling novel by Andrew Clements, this quirky, imaginative tale about creative thought and the power of words will have young audiences all over inventing their own words.
