<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"A pocket-sized paperback compendium of the hilariously illustrated #1 New York Times bestselling series of books about punctuation"--Provided by publisher.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><b>Laugh your way to punctuation perfection with this pocket-sized paperback compendium of the hilariously illustrated #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling series.</b></b> <p/>Clever side-by-side illustrations show how punctuation placement makes a huge difference in the meaning of a sentence. <p/>Imagine this without the middle period and the comma: "The king walked and talked. A half hour after, his head was cut off." Oh no--a beheaded king that can still walk and talk! You might want to eat a huge hot dog, but a huge, hot dog would run away pretty quickly if you tried to take a bite out of him. <p/>Scenes from all three of Lynne Truss and Bonnie Timmons's best-selling punctuation picture books (<i>Eats, Shoots & Leaves</i>, <i>The Girl's Like Spaghetti</i>, and<i> Twenty-Odd Ducks</i>) highlight the important jobs of commas, apostrophes, hyphens, quotation marks, and more in this humorous punctuation primer. <p/>"Wordplay or 'grammarplay' at its finest." --<i>School Library Journal</i><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Lynne Truss is a writer and journalist who started out as a literary editor with a blue pencil and then got sidetracked.
