Punctuation play is at its finest in this New York Times #1 bestseller!Illuminating the comical confusion the lowly comma can cause, this new edition of Eats, Shoots & Leaves uses lively, subversive illustrations to show how misplacing or leaving out a comma can change the meaning of a sentence completely. 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. And a sign saying "Eat here and get gas" would hint at a very different odor than "Eat here, and get gas."This picture book is sure to elicit gales of laughter-and better punctuation-from all who read it.#1 New York Times BestsellerBook Sense Book of the Year Honor BookKidsReads.com Best Book of the Year
