Here are some reviews:

‘It is a nice way to teach the kids during one hour in an enjoyable way, just having a ball ! This is a very nice book that parents should take for their kids’

‘The book is very solid, the clock as well, you need to know that. It is funny to do it with your child. On the left page, for each page, you are going to see a small clock, the time change as you go through the book. The game for the children is to put is to reproduce the time which is on the left page, so they need to put the two needles at the right place on the clock. We can see different characters on the right page, and we can see what actions they are doing at a given time, for example, brushing the teeth. It is very well thought. I strongly recommend you to use it’
