What is Me Counting Time : from Seconds to Centuries about?
<p><P>How long is a second? Can you count a minute? What is a decade? How many years are in a century?<br><br><i>Me Counting Time</i> can show you! From a second to a minute to an hour to a day — and all the way to a millennium — this playful introduction to time helps children understand the many measurements of time and how they’re used in everyday life.<br> <br>Easy to read and easy to understand, <i>Me Counting Time</i> makes learning a fun time for every child.</p><h3>School Library Journal</h3><p>K-Gr 2-A little girl approaching her seventh birthday introduces children to the elements of time from seconds to minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years, using concrete examples from her life to illustrate the concepts. She can write an invitation to her party in a minute and it takes one hour to make a birthday cake. Brief discussions of a Viking ship, a photo of her great-great-grandpa, and her mother's wedding dress represent more abstract concepts such as millennium, century, and decade. Colorful, childlike drawings reinforce the explanations, and the back flyleaf presents a chart reviewing the concepts. A serviceable title.-Joyce Rice, Limestone Creek E
