Telling the Time with Anna: First Skills by Vivian French

From seconds to minutes to hours, learn all about how to tell the time with Anna and her grandpa.

A charming new book, all about telling the time! Anna’s friend Zane is coming to tea soon – but when is “soon”, exactly? While Anna waits, Granddad teaches her how to tell the time for herself... From reading a clock to learning about different lengths of time (seconds, minutes, hours and more), join Anna, Grandpa and Whiskers the cat as they explore the wonderful workings of TIME – with words by master storyteller Vivian French, and warmly illustrated by rising star Ya-Ling Huang.

The gorgeous soft-tone illustrations by Ya-Ling Huang add so much charm and character to the text* The School Librarian *
A challenging concept to teach is laid out beautifully in this story which many children can now benefit from. * Armadillo Magazine *
Time can be a difficult concept to introduce in a child friendly way, but this book does it brilliantly! * Books Up North *
