Hey everyone it’s really been long since I wrote my last blog but now m back… not with a bang but with a BOOK…..Yup this time it’s a book & its written by LYNNE TRUSS. Believe me people it’s an Awesome book a must read for all the English fanatics…..
It was just like any other day & as I was going through a rack of books in the library this book along with few other books fell of the rack so I started picking up those fallen books. Suddenly, something caught my attention & it was a joke precisely a PANDA JOKE. Written on the cover page of this book & it goes like this….
A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun & fires two shots in the air.
“Why ??” asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes towards the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual & tosses it over his shoulder.
“I’m a panda,” he says, at the door. “Look it up.”
The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation.
“PANDA. Large black & white bear like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots & leaves.”

This book is all about “PUNCTUATION” & its usage from apostrophe, Coma, dash, colon, semi colon, exclamation mark to full stop & to all the other punctuation marks that u could ever think of in the English literature. It tells us why punctuations are important & how does it effect our language if we don’t use it at appropriate places.
This is one of the example quoted from the book to show u how such small signs….. can create world blunders……..
“A woman, without her man, is nothing.”
“A woman: without her, man is nothing.”
So you see how punctuations or mis-punctuation can change the entire meaning of a sentence. So if u really want to know how funny can language get if these punctuation marks are not there please read this book so that the next time u make a mistake u would know how to correct it before the other person corrects you.
All u people reading this please don’t confuse this book with any other grammar book because there’s nothing like grammar in this book. It’s a fun book with lots of humor instilled in it through its examples & quotes. This book is for ALL……….. be it BERKS (those who are outrageously slipshod about language) or WANKERS (those who are abhorrently precise about language) or even those people who don’t have any pretensions about their literary skills suited for all age group. So what are you people waiting for go grab your copy today……………
