description: A comanion to the New York Times #1 best-seller Eats, Shoots &amp; Leaves , this is punctuation play at its finest!Just as the use of commas was hilariously demystified in Eats, Shoots &amp; Why, Commas Really Do Make a Difference! , now Lynne Truss and Bonnie Timmons put their talents together to do the same for apostrophes. Everyone needs to know where to put an apostrophe to make a word plural or possessive (Are those sticky things your brother's or your brothers?) and leaving one out of a contraction can give someone the completely wrong impression (Were here to help you). Full of silly scenes that show how apostrophes make a difference, too, this is another picture book that will elicit bales of laughter and better punctuation from all who read it.A New York Times BestsellerParents’ Choice Silver Honor Winner
