Would you ever suspect Punctuation Marks have their very own personality? Yes, it’s true! A modern-day fable that takes you on a rollicking adventure full of surprises.
Exclamation Mark takes the lead, with pals Comma, Full Stop and Question Mark. Exclamation Mark is exasperated by how hard it is to do their job when they say they are so misused.
The only way to get their “point” across is to leave! They decide that a sailing trip would be just the solution.
Fresh sea air, new horizons to explore. Off to the Island of Fun they go . . . until their sea voyage takes an unexpected turn.
MY REVIEW
All young children need this marvellous book about language and literature to help them understand where exclamation marks, commas, full stops and Question Marks go in sentences.
I love the idea of the characters named Exclamation Mark, Comma, Full Stop and Question Mark, who all go on a sailing trip together, all working together just like sentences.
With this story named after Punctuation Marks, it’s told in a brilliant way that children will be able to relate to each page, and children will find the illustrations beautiful, where there are some hidden words to read.
This book would be ideal for schools to stock in their classroom. Get children reading, and writing better!
