My son loves it!

My son, who is five, picked this book out at the library one day and loved it. I thought it was a little too advanced for him, but he said he wanted to have one we could keep at home. So I got it for him for Christmas. This book is a very good learning tool, and my son asks lots of questions when we read it.


An Apostrophe Lesson

I enjoyed this book with my 7 year old son and he liked it. The pictures are funny and help keep the punctuation lesson on a fun level. I' not convinced that he'll know how to use the apostrophe from reading this one book but at least he'll have a head start.

It's the moment all the punctuation marks have been eagerly awaiting: assignment time, There are plenty of open positions for apostrophes as contractions soon there's only one job left--for a possessive--and only one apostrophe to fill it: non other than Greedy Apostrophe. It's not long before his greed gets out of hand, and he jumps into signs where he doesn't belong. What will it take to put Greedy Apostrophe back in his place? This clever and zany language arts picture book will have kids eager to learn the tricks of using an apostrophe.
