(3) K-3 Illustrated by Edward Miller. With clear, straightforward writing and uncluttered, eye-pleasing cartoon illustrations, the volume presents solid information about time. Time zones worldwide are introduced, followed by a bit of history, then explanations of concepts such as the prime meridian and the International Date Line. An astronaut and his robotlike dog appear on each spread, as do numerous clocks. The tone is light but not silly.
