Frindle
Written by Andrew Clements; Illustrated by Brian Selznick
Author Andrew Clements has written many books that take place in a school setting. Frindle is the story of boy who created a word to exasperate his English teacher, but then finds unexpected fame when the word takes on a life of its own. This would be a fun book to read aloud in class.
