AbstractHistoryArchive Description

When the flour and sugar canisters on the mantelpiece argue about which is the most important, the little green kitchen clock admits he is lonely. The clock is delighted when Mrs Dobson takes him down from the shelf and hopes for a journey through the house. He is dropped, taken to the watchmaker, meets all of the other clocks in the shop, and returns home with an exciting story to tell the canisters.
