Hickory Dickory

Before the clock infamously strikes one, a poor mother mouse must search the house for her two missing sons. But she'd better watch out for the cat!

Keith Baker displays his trademark flair for color, movement, and rhythm in this vibrant adaptation of the familiar nursery rhyme "Hickory Dickory Dock." A companion to his acclaimed Big Fat Hen, this twist on an old favorite features some serious antics on the part of a busy little mouse. As a huge grandfather clock strikes each hour from one o' clock in the afternoon to midnight, a different animal passes by, and the mouse has a funny interaction with each of them. With counting, telling time, and a cozy bedtime ending to engage them, children will be chiming in for repeated readings.

Recounts the antics of a young mouse each hour after the clock strikes one.

An illustrated, humorous version of the traditional nursery rhyme.

Features familiar and lesser-known Mother Goose rhymes, with illustrations by the artist who created the Stupids and Miss Nelson.
