"Sixty seconds. That's one minute. A lot can happen in one minute. For starters, David can save his spaceship from the Glucazoids. Look around and see what else happens in a minute."
The heart beats eighty times, an average kid will take twenty breaths of air, we will shed 10,000 particles of skin...did you know all of that? And that's only a part of an early page in this lively, informative book about time. What might happen in an hour, or a day? As the reader, you are constantly bombarded with facts; and, there is so much to learn. A brief story provides a place to start but you don't have to follow it to gain information and new trivia to keep in your head for future discussions. I would love to share many of the bits of data provided but I think you would be better to buy or borrow this book to see how much fun it really is.
Cartoon like drawings and speech bubbles set the tone for reading and its accessibility will make it a fast favorite...with clear explanations, funny facts and a great appeal for all readers. Finally, there is a timeline that traces the evolution of timepieces throughout history. Read this book, and then read it again...and share it with your friends!
