Then Josh discovers a secret; turns out Mr. N's been keeping a lot more than technology from his students! Together with his best friend Vanessa, and using all the computer skills theyâve got, Josh is determined to solve the mystery of Mr. Nâs past. And maybe get some screentime back, too?Â

Andrew Clementsâs final novel is a timely oneâabout the importance of language, the changes that come along with technology (good and bad), and how sometimes you have to challenge what you think you know. Set a whole generation later, this novel can be read on its own or alongside Frindle and is destined to become another timeless classic.
