About the Book
A young girl is used to reminders about minutes, schedules, and being on time—especially from her mom. One night, she wishes to stop hearing about time forever, and the next day, her wish has come true. . . almost. Her mother turned into a big blue clock!
With her clock-mother ticking beside her, the girl sets off on her scooter to find help. The clock hospital is closed for vacation, but the clock spa is open—a magical place where worn-out clocks can rest, relax, and be repaired. Thanks to a wise old woman and a little time to unwind, everything begins to make sense again.
