Discover how to write like a pro with this concise, witty guide to grammar and punctuation for students of the English language.

Basher Basics: Punctuation is a compelling guide to a community of characters who make up a sentence, from loud-mouthed Exclamation Mark to the chattering Quotation Marks. Learn the difference between a dash and a hyphen, and the best place to use an ellipsis.

Basher's unique illustrations combine with chatty, first-person text by expert author Mary Budzik to hook even the most reluctant readers and help them to understand the rules of the English language.

Perfect for home or school, Basher's highly original books make difficult concepts tangible, understandable and even lovable. With sales of over 3 million copies around the world, they are a brilliant way to communicate science, history and geography.
