Summary of Professional Reviews:
Punctuation marks come alive in this
clever picture book featuring fourteen playful poems. Periods stop sentences in
a baker’s shop, commas help a train slow down, quotation marks tell people what
to do, and colons stubbornly introduce lists. This appealing primer is a
surefire way to make punctuation both accessible and fun for kids.
Review by Rokaya:
This is an interesting book that uses great illustrations to turn punctuations into living things
that do things that we do such as talk, run, and play sports. The ryhming in the book adds a
nice tone to the story which makes it more fun to read.
This book would be useful when teaching...
Teachers can use this book after or before teaching a lesson on punctuation.
