The Clock That Told the Wrong Time

About

The story tells of an old-fashioned clock owned by Juno’s dad. Though it was over 140 years old and often told the wrong time, Juno’s dad refused to get rid of it because it was special to him. The clock’s inaccuracy caused various problems, including making Juno late for school and almost causing Juno’s dad to miss the birth of his child. One day, Juno’s brother accidentally broke the clock. Juno’s dad was sad, but his mom had it repaired, which made him happy again. The story shows that old things can still be valuable if given a little care.

Praise for this book

My daughter loved The Clock That Told the Wrong Time! It made her giggle and think about patience and family. As a curious adult, I wished I knew more about why the clock was so special to the dad — but that's just me being nosy! Overall, a sweet story for kids.

Lovely story, nice.
