The Friendship War by Andrew Clements

One of my favorite chapter books is Frindle by Mr. Clements. 
Although I was not really excited about reading his newest book, (petty middle school girls!!, middle school drama etc.), I enjoyed it more than I anticipated!
Grace comes home from her grandfather's with interesting treasures ( aka junk to some people!).  What she is most excited about, however, are the buttons she discovered in an abandoned factory he recently bought.  He sends a pallet of boxes filled with buttons! 
When she takes some of the buttons to school, she accidentally begins a fad.  Unfortunately this fad causes a dispute between her and her best friend.  How can she stop an out of control fad?!
Points to discuss: unkindness in friendship, vandalism, consequences for irrational behavior, death/life after death
-Borrowed from the library
