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
