Measuring Time

Measuring Time series.
Abstract time concepts (how long is a particular unit? how does it relate to other units?) are briefly introduced. The concrete examples in Seconds and Hours ("It takes about 1 second to sneeze"; "The movie lasts two hours") are more helpful than some of those found in Weeks and Years. Stock photos feature children, calendar pages, clocks, and stopwatches. Review covers these Measuring Time titles: How Many Hours?, How Many Seconds?, How Many Weeks?, and How Many Years?

Measuring Time series.
These volumes attempt to explain the abstract concept of time for young children. Examples are provided; the ones in Hours ("Each clap is about a second," "You can wash your hands in one minute") are more useful than those in Days ("This girl visits a library on Monday").
