review 1: This engaging children's book follows Mr Wolf as he meanders through his day ,whilst keeping tabs on the time. Various bright and wonderful creatures repeatedly ask Mr Wolf,"Whats the time,Mr Wolf?". The flustered wolf becomes irked in response to his friend's larking. The engaging narrative is appropriate for year one to three children in my opinion. It provides a superb visual and auditory experience for kids who are on the verge of learning the basics of time. The array of fantastic and charismatic animal characters guide the child into a beautiful and rich reading world, whilst at the same time providing a foundation to explore time. I really enjoyed this book. It is warm, loving and perfect for key stage one children. I will definately introduce this in my class... moreroom.
review 2: Not only is this book adorable and entertaining, but there are so many lessons that can be taken out of it! Debi Gliori incorporates telling time, nursery rhymes, and classic fairy tale and nursery rhyme characters into one book! On top of that, there is a lesson on friendship that surely benefited a couple of my students who are struggling to be friendly to their peers. It was fun reading the story to my kids and seeing which nursery rhymes they are familiar with and which ones we need to learn. This is a book that can be linked with several subjects, including math. Some of my second graders are still not able to tell time! This book supplies visuals and would be a a good start to a review on how to tell time with the hour and minute hand and what time of day the clock indicates. less

The much maligned Mr Wolf gets a leading role in this nursery rhyme mashup.
