Publisher's Note
Grandmother has a clock, of course, but she doesn't use it to tell time. "I have so many other clocks," she says. A heartbeat, the blink of an eye, reading the newspaper, the length of shadows, the smell of baking, birdsong, birthdays, the moon. . . . Everything in and around us speaks eloquently of the passage of time. And so does this lyrical, moving text, warmed by dreamy illustrations that perfectly capture the affection between grandparents and grandchild. An inspired discussion starter and a beautiful gift book, My Grandmother's Clock is an exceptional collaboration of two remarkable talents.

Industry Reviews
"An eloquent, compelling invitation to children to think deep thoughts and not to take the over-scheduled life for granted."
Kirkus Reviews (07/15/2002)
