"Mr. Winky is fond of his noisy clock shop--until Mr. Glum comments on the awful noise, that is. Newly bothered by the constant tick tocks, Mr. Winky decides to leave. But no matter where he goes (the train, the countryside, and the woods), he can't find any peace. There's noise everywhere! Before long, Mr. Winky can't wait to get back to the comfort of his noisy clock shop"--Publisher.

Good book!! submitted by cayleyrocks on August 11, 2018, 3:09pm This is a good book because it has a lot of different clocks.

Can you hear yourself think? submitted by FordAlpha on August 20, 2018, 10:24pm This edition is a re-issue of an old title (I think it was originally a Little Golden Book?), and the story and illustrations have an old-fashioned charm. Yet the story is relevant to our time: in a noisy, hectic world, how do you find mental quiet? The text includes lots of fun onomatopoeic words (sound effects) that add to the enjoyment of reading it aloud, and the illustrations are colorful and eye-catching. It might bother some that Mr. Winky smokes a pipe, but hey, so does Santa Claus. My kids and I all enjoyed this book.
