Description
You have the right to remain silent. In fact, that's exactly what fifth-grader Dave Packer tries to do - for 24 hours straight. But when he meets Lynsey Burgess, who talks nonstop during lunch, his silence is broken and a contest begins. The boys against the girls will say the fewest words during two whole days, but at what cost? As the principal struggles to maintain control, Dave and Lynsey must navigate the power of words spoken in kindness - or anger. This humorous and thought-provoking book explores language and its impact on our lives. With a unique premise and engaging characters, Andrew Clements weaves a tale that's both entertaining and insightful. A great choice for readers looking for a story that will make them think about the power of words.
