Picture books
Do you have some time?
by Sophia Dartzali
Description
Clocks measure time; that’s their job. A cuckoo clock, gifted by this grandfather, will become a boy’s best friend. The cuckoo watches the boy grow up, sharing his joys and sorrows and all of his moments. Until he wishes to stop the clock so they can stay together for ever… Will time obey?
A book about moments, beginnings and endings, but most importantly, continuum. The poetic language and intuitive illustrations make a beautiful, touching story about the circle of life.
