A warm, whimsical story about friendship, contentment, and finding joy right where you are.
In a cozy old house with a tall front hall, Grandfather Clock keeps time with pride. Every hour, his grand old voice fills the room: BONG! BONG! BONG!
But near the front door sits Young Watch-shiny, speedy, and always ready for his next adventure.
Each day, Young Watch goes out into the big exciting world with Mr. Pendleton. He sees sidewalks, trains, bridges, rain, city streets, and even the ocean. Each night, he returns home full of stories.
Grandfather Clock listens and listens. But the more Young Watch tells, the farther away the world begins to feel.
With help from Maizy the cat, a cheerful teapot, and the quiet kindness of friendship, Grandfather Clock discovers something important: Young Watch may be made to wander, but Grandfather Clock has stories too-and his place in the warm old house matters more than he knows.
Tick-Tock: The Young Watch and Grandfather Clock is a beautifully illustrated children's picture book about patience, purpose, friendship, and learning that every life has value-whether it travels the world or faithfully keeps time at home.
Perfect for bedtime reading, grandparent gifts, classroom story time, and children who enjoy gentle stories with lovable characters and a timeless message.
