A village is torn apart by its residents' inability to communicate,
until a little girl shares the gift of punctuation in this humorous
illustrated parable.
Chaos reigns in the village of Babble! All day, the residents fight,
yell and argue, and no one is heard or understood . . . until a
mysterious little girl arrives and gives the locals something very
strange: a period. But what is this thing that looks like a freckle or a
spot? The villagers don't even know how to ask. However, as the girl
begins to share more gifts -- a question mark, quotation marks -- the
residents slowly learn how to communicate. But when more fights arise
and disaster strikes, can punctuation truly save the day?
