One MinuteSomin Ahn, illustrated by Somin AhnA small girl considers what can happen during sixty seconds. A minute can hold repeated blinks, a hug for a dog, or other small actions, but its length can feel different depending on the moment. Time rushes by on a merry-go-round and seems to stretch during a dentist visit. Mixed-media line drawings accompany this explanation of a clock’s movement and the girl’s everyday examples. The book contrasts measured time with a child’s changing sense of how quickly a minute passes.Under FiveOn the same reading list for the same age or grade groupView book details
