A Second Is a Hiccup

by Hazel Hutchins
illustrated by Kady MacDonald Denton

If you build a sandy tower
Run right through a sprinkly shower
Climb a tree and smell a flower
Pretend you have a secret power
That should nicely fill
An hour.

Happy rhymes and illustrations full of colour, light and energy capture the delights of childhood and the passage of time. Every second, minute and hour — right up to an entire year — are reflected in warm and playful pictures. The concept of time spirals out in easy verse, making this a perfect choice for cozy reading aloud, or for sharing memories.

Your Reviews

"This is an excellent book for students in Grade Two. I've used this in my classroom to talk about the relationship between time and how to estimate the passage of time. The students loved it! The pictures inside are beautiful and the rhyming captivated them." Amber M., Age 23, Ontario, Rating: 10
