Description

 

A picture book that’s full of fun and silliness, The Full Stop That Got Away brings together Laura Baker and Nathan Reed for the very first time – and the results are hilarious!

This is Frank.
Frank is a full stop.
He’s round and small and things quietly stop when he’s around.

Frank is a full stop, and he acts exactly like a full stop should. 

He splits up sentences that get too long . . .
“It’s true. I do.”

He never shouts . . .
“Ouch. Ouch. Help.”

And he never asks questions. 
“That’s right.”

But what if Frank decides to stop acting like a full stop? What would happen then?

 

  • Brilliantly funny story by Laura Baker, author of The Colour of Happy and Monsters in Trucks
  • Beautifully illustrated by Nathan Reed, illustrator of Think BIG and the Sam Wu series
  • Not just a fun story, The Full Stop That Got Away is also a perfect introduction to punctuation for children!
  • Ideal for fans of The Day the Crayons Quit
