This colorful board book is all about time. Simon Basher's iconic little figure, BoBo, reacts to the different 'times' of the day. For example, at breakfast time we see him holding a spoon with bowls of cereal all around him.

Play time, lunch time, park time, dinner time, bath time and bed time make up the rest of the day. Each two-page spread features a large clock on one side with the time clearly observable and on the opposite side BoBo is engaged in the appropriate activity.

Basher's minimalist approach that emphasizes vivid colors, a simple rendering of the main character and a collection of items that reinforce the activity make this a visually pleasing board book that any toddler will be attracted to.
