2018 Cybils Poetry Nominee
14 poems provide an introduction to punctuation.
Thoughts: A fun collection that kids interested in writing will pick up as well as teachers teaching punctuation. The poems are fun and witty. The illustrations are interesting. My favorite poems are "Comma" by Lee Bennett Hopkins, "!!!!!!!!--Superhero Kaboom--!!!!!!!!" by Julie Larios, "Question Mark" by Prince Redcloud, and "Lines Written for You to Think About" by Lee Bennett Hopkins. I love how "Lines..." functions as an invitation to write poetry and explore punctuation.
