Reach for this book when your child is gripped by the 'what is everyone else doing?' phase of curiosity, or when you are looking to introduce the concept of time through a lens of humor and play. It is perfect for children who might feel a little anxious or lonely about what happens when the lights go out or when they are apart from their peers. Roz Chast takes readers on a kooky, hour by hour tour of 24 different children across the globe. Rather than a dry lesson on telling time, the book leans into the absurdist and the imaginative, showing that at any given moment, someone is doing something wonderfully weird. It validates a child's inner world and sense of wonder, making it a delightful choice for ages 4 to 8. Parents will appreciate the clever wit that makes repetitive reading enjoyable for adults too.
