The Time It Took Tom

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Nick Sharratt. When mischievous Tom finds a can of red paint, he decides to coat the entire living room and all its contents. After Mom calms down, the cleanup and redecorating ensues. This well-paced tale, working in conjunction with the cheery, vibrant illustrations, demonstrates the relative difference between seconds, minutes, hours, and to a lesser degree, a day, weeks, months, and years.
