A quirky, imaginative tale about creative thought and the power of language that will have readers inventing their own words-now available in a deluxe paperback edition!
What if one day you decided to stop calling a word like pen "pen" and started calling it something else--like "frindle"? When Nicholas Allen does just that, and encourages all of his friends to start using the new word, his experiment turns the town upside down. An imaginative tale about creative thought and the power of words.
"If there's any justice in the world, Clements may have something of a classic on his hands. . . . A captivating tale--one to press upon children, and one they'll be passing among themselves."
