This story is almost pun-ishment to read. The characters are tempra painted punctuation marks:

Penny on the school safety patrol is a period, Elsie the cheerleader is an exclamation mark, and Quentin is a question mark.

Some schools have Spelling Bees, but this school has a punctuation bee/contest. The students who uses his own punctuation mark correctly the most times will be the winner.

Could be a fun book to share with a class using a document camera for an introduction or a review of end punctuation marks.
