No Talking

Andrew Clements


The charters in no talking are Dave, Lynsey, all of the 5th grade teachers Mrs Overby, Mrs Marlow, Mr Burton Mrs Akers, Mrs Henely , and the principle Mrs. Hiatt.

The settings are at Laketon Elementaty School, at Dave's house, and at the school cafeteria.

This story is about a boy and a girl named Dave and Lynsey. They made a contest for the whole 5th grade to stop talking. The students could only say three words to the teachers and fellow students to be respectful. The teachers want the 5th grade to talk when it's Ok and be quiet when they need to. At the end Dave asked the principle Mrs. Hiatt if she would like to join the contest. She agreed . After that she called a school assembly for all students except kindergarten, she said 1-5 grade are doing a contest for no talking for 23 hours. The next day when it was 5th grade lunch, at 12:15 they could talk again. In the 5th grade is was a tie between the girls and boys.

I recommend this book because it is fun to read. I had a hard time putting it down.
