With the repetition and size of most pictures this could be used for storytime. My main complaint is that an opportunity was missed by not having a clock show the time for each hour. There's a lot of repetition with about 35 words being used. The rhymes generally work well and the story should engage emergent readers. My favorite images are smocks, blocks, socks, flock, wok, six, and last picture.

Books like this are necessary of course, and I have seen more boring and stilted texts than this one, but I still think reading this book will feel like a chore, especially for kids who are reluctant to read because it seems boring to them.more The illustrations do their best to contextualize the largely nonsensical text, which makes the book bearable, but ultimately, this is a text to help kids learn to read, not necessarily a text they will want to read for fun.
I know the purpose of a phonics reader is to reinforce particular sounds made by particular groups of letters so I tried to be forgiving, but it’s hard to buy into a story where the only reason for ninety percent of what happens is the fact that the words used rhyme with “tick tock.” I also can’t stand rhyme for rhyme’s sake.

Because of this, there are really only two times of day that obviously stand out - lunch time at 12:00 and dinner time at 5:00. For starters, though there is a clock on the cover, and in the title of the story, there is no clock on any page inside the book. Unfortunately, I don’t know that their children will be as excited, because the story doesn’t really come together as it should. There is a high demand among parents at my library for readers that focus on phonics, and this book will definitely please them.

At the end of the day, the girls go home with Mom, and Grandma falls asleep, totally worn out from her wild granddaughters’ visit.
