Each double -page spread features a clock or calendar with simple instructions on how to read them. This book is one of a series that takes National Curriculum information topics and explains them in a simple, appealing way. It combines a read-out-aloud quality with a great way of encouraging young children to look and think beyond what they actually visualise.
