This book is a light and humorous workbook to accompany Lynne Truss' 'Eats, Shoots and Leaves'. A 'challenge yourself' format to appeal both to people who think they are good at punctuating and those who want to get better at it. * The book contains chapters which follow the chapters of Eats, Shoots and Leaves and present guidance for correct usage and exercises to put them into practice. * The tone of the book is light. For example, there are exercises in using commas which ask the readers to add commas to a passage and then do a magazine-style questionnaire looking at what kind of person they are depending on how many they used correctly. * The final section contains whole passages which need punctuation.
