Frindle by Andrew Clements

      This new book that i started reading called Frindle, is basically about this kid named Nick that isn't really a trouble maker but has a really big imagination with making things more fun. For example when he was in third grade he tried to turn his classroom into a tropical island, his teacher was fine with it but when the principle got involved things didn't go so well. If you really do classify him a a trouble maker, he's a really smart one because he learned about the blackbird's high noise frequency and how no one can track where the noise is coming from. He did use this to cause trouble in his fourth grade classroom, but at least he could never get caught. This book is beginning to get very interesting but you have to read it to see what happens.

This book is really good although the second chapter WAS only about his day during halloween and That he wanted to go to a party.But Vlad is as nice and suite as we thought he scared little oída by flying and showing his fangs.The weared part about it is that one of the kids didn't get scared the kid just looked at him but then Vlad told him to go home and he did.I guiño that the kid is also a vampire and maybe he knows why the other vampire is looking for him.........That kid knows something you and me don't.
