Charming retelling of a well-known nursery rhyme.

Hickory Dickory Dock is a book about the well known mother goose nursery rhyme. Different animals come see the clock, but when the clock strikes a certain time, the animals run off. This book can help students learn to tell time as well as children's rhymes and poetry. The illustrations can help the students visually see the time as they say the nursery rhyme. This book would be appropriate for children in Kindergarten to third grade.

Each hour a different animal shows up, interacts with the clock in some way, and leaves in a way that rhymes with the time. ( )

A rhythmic twist on the Mother Goose nursery rhyme; includes the mouse and the grandfather clock but so much more as a variety of animals make their way through the story. A bird, a snake, a rabbit, a swarm of bees, some hens, a pig, a goat, a bear, a horse, and the moon help teach us how to tell time.
