A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then pulls out a gun and shoots the waiter. “Why?” groans the injured man. The panda shrugs, tosses him a badly punctuated wildlife manual and walks out. And sure enough, when the waiter consults the book, he finds an explanation. “Panda. Large black and white mammal native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves.”

Who knew grammar could be so much fun? Through sloppy usage and low standards on the internet, in email, and now text messages, proper punctuation has become an endangered species. In Eats, Shoots & Leaves, Lynne Truss says that it is time to look at our commas and semicolons and see them as the wonderful and necessary things they are. This is a book for people who love punctuation and get upset when it is mishandled. It sold over 3 million copies worldwide in hardback. From the invention of the question mark in the time of Charlemagne to George Orwell shunning the semicolon, this lively books makes a powerful case for the preservation of a subtle and invaluable system.
