In this book about learning to tell time, a space alien teaches Grayson how to read a clock face. This picture book also takes a few timeouts for Grayson and the alien to have a little fun together, though little detail is given. Frankly, these brief interludes could have been skipped with little harm to the story. The book is colorful, and children who enjoy stories about aliens will probably like this book.
I'm very particular about children's books being error-free, and this one is not. The publisher uses the unfortunate “till” as a shortened version of *until*. I don't like seeing this in adult fiction books, but I especially dislike seeing it in children's books, as it is simply incorrect. The shortened version of *until*, if you must use it, is “‘til.” It needs that apostrophe to show that it's a shortened version of the word, and as the actual word *until* has no second to L, so its shortened version shouldn't have one either. Adding one- or two-page non-time telling interludes broke the book's flow. Not much happened during these interludes, so they just seemed like a waste of pages. As you can tell, I wasn't really wild about this book.
I received a free copy of this book, but that did not affect my review.
