One last gift to teachers and readers from Andrew Clements: A sequel to his most beloved, landmark book, Frindle .
Filled with humor and Clements\' potent, no-nonsense prose, The Frindle Files is an inspiring, thoughtful, remarkable novel that will grace children\'s and classroom shelves for another 25 years..
It\'s a story that\'s both timeless and timely--about the importance of language, of digging deep to find answers, and of challenging what you think you know to imagine what is possible.
More than 25 years after the publication of Frindle , and set one whole generation later, The Frindle Files is a gift left by the beloved Andrew Clements before he passed away.
And maybe--just maybe--get some screen time back, too.
N\'s been keeping a lot more than technology from his students! Josh and his best friend, Vanessa, are determined to solve the mystery and rally the other kids around their cause.
Turns out Mr.
Then one night, while s-l-o-w-l-y finishing an assignment by hand, Josh discovers a secret.
N makes the kids write everything out on paper, he won\'t use a Smart Board, and he\'s obsessed with some hundred-year-old grammar book.

N\'s ELA class is such a slog; it\'s a strict no-tech zone.
Which is why Mr.
Nothing\'s better than writing code or downloading a new release.
Josh Willet is a techie, a serious gamer.
While the original is a love letter to writing and the power of words, The Frindle Files shows us that using those words carefully--that speaking up --can make all the difference.
