Many people call me an exclamation point so one of my co-workers at the bookstore said I HAD to read this. I LOVE it! Great fun! ( )

The punctuation nerd in me couldn't not give this 5 stars. It was darling. ( )

This visual and imaginative tale of the exuberant punctuation mark is a story about fitting in, finding a sense of purpose, and selfacceptance.

Sometimes children have a hard time trying to "fit" in. This is an excellent book to read to students to not only help with learning punctuation, but helping students to learn to love themselves for who they are. At first the exclamation mark did not like that he did not fit in with everyone else, but soon he realized that it was okay to be different and to love himself for who he is. This is also another great life lesson to teach students. Being in school I think sometimes it is hard for some children to feel like they "fit" in, when in reality its not about fitting it, it is just about being yourself. I love Rosenthal's illustrations with her books, and how she fits in these little life lessons that we can teach children. ( )

Super cute story explaining the exclamation mark! I think this would be a great addition for a kindergarten class. ( )
