Add a CommentWhen Dave tells Lynsey that she talks too much, the 5th-grade class known as the “Unshushables” is divided into two, girls and boys. They challenge each other to see who talks the least, and this turns out to be more difficult than they expected. It takes all their teachers and parents by surprise.
Through the 5th grader’s competition, they learn some important lessons and realize that everything isn’t about winning.
This story is entertaining and lovable. There is no way that you won’t enjoy reading this book.
This story is well written and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a good school story.
It’s boys vs. girls when the noisiest, most talkative, and most competitive fifth graders in history challenge one another to see who can go the longest without talking. Teachers and school administrators are in an uproar, until an innovative teacher sees how the kids’ experiment can provide a terrific and unique lesson in communication. In No Talking, Andrew Clements portrays a battle of wills between some spunky kids and a creative teacher with the perfect pitch for elementary school life.
This book is okay, But I like FRINDLE BETTER!
I thought this book was okay but its great for those of you who dislike girls and boys!

This book is even better than amazing! I love Andrew Clements! How can he think of such things? I VERY highly recommend this book!
Well, chaka baka yack yack...
A variation on FRINDLE, as a no-talking competition between boys and girls draws the fifth grade into conflict with the principal. The prank here is more practical, and seems more doable, and the life lesson that results seems more profound.
awesome book!!! one of my favorites
humorous, captivating and many other good characteristics. differnt than other books, which is clement's style. new creative and good ideas portrayed in here
