COMMA QUEST
The Rules They Followed—The Sentences They Saved

 COMMA QUEST: The Rules They Followed--
The Sentences They Saved
  (Discover Writing)

This is my book for educators and readers, a picture-song book of the comma rules.

They followed their Momma’s wishes. They followed their own dreams. But more importantly, they followed the Rules. Meet the 6 Comma Kids who leave their Home Sentence to go out into the world and find sentences of their own. Along the way they experience love, heartache, adventure, and doubt, but they persevere in their quest to save sentences. They came. They sang. They punctuated.

Not only a book about commas, Comma Quest is a book about periods and semicolons.
Not only is Comma Quest a book about punctuation; readers also learn grammar—clauses, conjunctions,compound and complex sentences, prepositional phrases, etc.—through song.


Rhyme and rhythm.  Rhythm and rhyme.  They help us remember every time.
