Eats, Shoots and Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation is by Lynne Truss. Although Truss is British and British punctuation isn't exactly the same as American punctuation, this book is a gem. It is loaded with examples of poor punctuation and the misunderstandings it can cause. The book also gives the history of punctuation and lists the rules for using it. An engaging read - and you thought grammar was boring!?!
Ratings: 7th grade - 7 out of 10.
