In an illustration in Twenty-Odd Ducks, guests sit around a dinner table in formal attire, yelling and throwing wine at one another in the queen's absence. The accompanying caption reads: The queen: without her, dinner is noisy. In the adjacent illustration, the queen screams, jumps on the table, and waves her cutlery in the air as she awaits her meal. The caption reads: The queen, without her dinner, is noisy. These and other humorous examples demonstrate how punctuation can dramatically change the meaning of a sentence. Introduction. Detailed explanations of each example. Full-color illustrations.
