This book called No Talking is about Dave and other 5 grade boys have a contest with linzy and the other 5 grade girls to see who can talks more boys or girls who will win?           .  The books mostly funny because some of the parents yell at the kids when they dont talk to them and only have use three word sentencess hard right. I believe kids would laugh at it, good for ages 9 and up, plus good for grades 3 -5. So read this good book!

    Have you ever heard of No Talking?Well I will tell you about it.It is about a girl named Lynsey and a boy named Dave.They talk way too much.So they decied to go head to head in a boys aginst girls contest.And they can only use three words to anwser a teacher.
     The reason I liked this book is it made me laugh,the second is it was fun to see Dave and Lynsey go head to head.And finnally,I liked how they could only use three words.
      I think if you like Relistic Fiction you would like this book.Next,it is for 8-12 ages only.And finnally, Its for if you like Andrew Clements.I hope you enjoyed the book as much as I did.

No Talking is about 5 grades having a no talking contest. No Talking is also about Dave and Lisdney having a contest. A no talking contest. if one of  lose the winner will mark a ''L'' on the loser head.

I like the book because there is a contest and I like a good contest. The book has a lot of peace and quiet. Out of all of this do you think the contest is going to be a tied?

I recommend this book for kids 8-13. I also recommen this book for 5-6 grades. I also recommen this book for kids who love to read a lot.

                                                  Could u not Talk?
    First, the book No talking is mainly about two characters. They have a no talking contest between each other. It has a limit of three words for when you talk to adults. It is the whole fifth grade, boys against girls. Who will win?
    
      Next, I liked the book because it was funny, because the teachers kept getting mad bercause thekids weren't talking. I also liked the book because of the smart remarks. I liked how Mrs. Hiatt got mad when the kids weren't talking.
    
   Lastly,  I recommend this book for ages 8 and up. I recommend this book for people  who like comedy. I also recommend this book for people who like addicting books.

The fifth grade class at Laketon Elementary are called the Unshushables by faculty and staff. They can't seem to keep quite and the boys and girls still dislike each other even though they should be outgrowing the "cootie" phase. This all comes to a head when the de facto leader of the boys, Dave, and the de facto leader of the girls, Lynsey, agree to a contest to see who can go the longest without talking: all of the fifth-grade boys or all of the fifth-grade girls. The contest is going well until the principal gets involved and wants to put a stop to it.

This is a good read for late elementary-schooled kids. It is funny, has a good plot and memorable characters, and is realistic. It is perhaps a bit moralistic at the end, but not too overbearing. I can see both girls and boys being interested in this book.
