«Eats, Shoots & Leaves For Children» is Lynne Truss's children's book about punctuation, published by Profile Books in hardcover (32 pages, in English).
Lynne Truss and Bonnie Timmons show with humor how a misplaced or omitted comma changes the meaning of a sentence and causes absurd confusion, such as mistaking a huge hot dog for an enormous hot dog. The panda illustrations and examples play with grammar so that punctuation is learned naturally.
First title in the «Eats, Shoots & Leaves Picture Books» series, a children's adaptation of the bestseller «Eats, Shoots & Leaves» by Lynne Truss, published on September 14, 2006.
Designed for early readers and for adults who want to review punctuation with humor.
