Animal Hours

Here's a timely picture book -- the adventures of a small boy and a crazy assortment of animals who, every hour on the hour, arrive to keep him company. After a hippo dives into the backyard pool at five, a slippery seal arrives promptly for dinner at six, and a polar bear slips into the bathtub at seven. And what could be a better way to end the evening than with a tiny mouse squeaking in at midnight and setting the whole group dancing until dawn! Clocks, telling the appropriate time, are hidden in every illustrations, and the game of hide-and-seek will keep children searching, reading and learning.Manning, Linda is the author of 'Animal Hours', published 1991 under ISBN 9780195407716 and ISBN 0195407717.
