What does that clock say? When are 12 a.m. and 12 p.m.? And how long is a century? With bright illustrations, quirky characters and over 125 flaps to lift, this book makes learning about time easy and fun. It covers how to read ALL kinds of clocks, analogue and digital, and even with Roman numerals. It also explains how to use timetables and calendars, and related concepts and vocabulary - such as what is a fortnight, a decade or how many days there are in a leap year. At the end, a specially engineered page lets readers assemble a clock with moving hands, which they can use to practise their skills in a time-telling challenge.
