Eats, shoots & leaves submitted by ejmarcash on August 10, 2016, 10:39pm Very funny book illustrating the difference placement of a comma can have on a sentence. I had to read a few of the examples over again to my 8 yo son, emphasizing the pauses or lack of pauses, but he figured out most of it. His favorite was the example where the book gets its title from.
