The Resource Truss, Lynne

Description: Punctuation is everything, argues Lynne Truss, whose best-known book, on the comma, was written for adults. Most of her imaginative guides, however, are for kids. With clever, illustrated examples and a humorous, chatty writing style (end notes explain punctuation rules in more detail), her creative books make for pleasurable as well as educational reading -- and rocketed her first book, Eats, Shoots and Leaves, to bestsellers lists. Truss's British upbringing is reflected both in her humor and her writing, though this will prove no impediment to non-British readers. Start with: The Girl's Like Spaghetti (Kids); Eats, Shoots and Leaves (adults)
