It's about time! Book

Tell time, mark time, waste time, pass the time. There are so many ways to deal with time! It can be divided into big chunks of years or tiny slivers of seconds. Today turns into yesterday and tomorrow becomes today. Time zones, time machines, timepieces . . . the many playful possibilities of time, the ways we think and wonder about it, are explored in a cheerful collection of original verses. In the vivid illustrations, executed in Cathryn Falwell's signature cut-paper collage, a lively sprite leads the way through the funny and thought-provoking images. A perfect book for children who are just beginning to grasp the implications of time, "It's About Time!" will make reading time a pleasure.

A collection of poems about the many aspects of time, including "The Time Machine," "Wasting Time," and "Time Zones."
