Is it a cash-in to get parents nostalgic for the movies to buy the book for the baby? Yes. Is it an informative and worthwhile purchase? It does help to teach younglings how to tell time on an a clock with hands, borrow it from the local library.

I read the whole thing standing in the bookstore (gently, so I didn’t bend it), and I was so tickled! My 80s movie heart was happy, and I appreciate showing the littles an analog clock. Some of my middle schoolers say they can’t read those!
