No Talking

By Andrew Clements


You're not going to believe this! In a school called Laketon elementary, there is a teacher named Mrs. Overby. There are two kids that did a report on India named Lynsey and Dave.

In class when Lynsey and Dave had to read the report on India there was a problem. Dave wanted a day of no talking so he had to come up with a plan. Dave’s plan was to pretend he was sick. For Dave’s plan to work Dave he had to pretend to cough. When they were standing in front of the class, Dave began to cough and act sick.

Since Dave was coughing, Mrs. Overby told Dave to sit down and let Lynsey read the report of India. He was able to keep his day of no talking.

My favorite character in the story is Lynsey because she is nice. My favorite part of the story is when Dave sat at lunch the lunch lady told Dave to stand up and talk and tell why he was not talking to his friends.

I would recommend this book to my friends because I found it funny and I like reading it and think that my friends would like it too.
