PUNCTUATION

Does your child love punctuation?! Try This!

! (Exclamation Mark)

Author: Amy Krouse Rosenthal
Illustrator: Tom Lichtenheld
Publisher: Scholastic Press
Recommended Age Range: 4 to 8
Website

! is an exceptional book about an exclamation mark that longs to be like his friends (period).☺ When a question mark annoys him with a barrage of questions, ! loses his cool. Lucky for him, when he screams “STOP!” he learns not only his true calling in life, but how “…to make his mark.” A fantastic book!
