The Full Stop That Got Away New Get 20% OFF across the Scholastic Shop by Laura Baker (author) and Nathan Reed (illustrator)

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?
