Who ever thought punctuation was so important?! There are not enough words to describe how much I enjoyed this book. For teacher's this book is written in a way where you can pretend your students are the students in the book. Play out your classroom as the book does and speak with incorrect punctuation when the book is written in such a way. Students will begin to realize how important punctuation is to sentence meaning and comprehension. I used this in a lesson on punctuation usage and my students loved it. They were excited to "help" the students in the book get the punctuation marks to come back. So many lessons can grow from this single book and the book itself is both entertaining and educational. It involves guessing the punctuation, correcting the punctuation, and it truly demonstrates the vitality of correct punctuation usage. After reading this book and gaining a better understanding for the need of punctuation, students where pointing out punctuation marks all day long!
A decent account of an aspect of the fundamentalist Muslim uprisings which happened in central Africa in the late 1800's. The author was part of a rescue expedition to rescue Emin Pasha, who was a Belgian in Egyptian/Ottoman employ. The events take place following the fall of Khartoum and the death of Gordon. Interesting narrative on the difficulties encountered by Europeans.
