Commas love taking breaks. In fact, they want everyone to take breaks! Follow along and learn all about commas.
“Commas are never in a hurry explain the commas who narrate this story and share tips in dialogue bubbles. While some text explains what commas can do, the rest is a story about a whale and his friends. . . .I'm so impressed by how skillfully the story and the instruction are woven together.”
