The Wonder Clock

Description

Step through the doors of the Wonder Clock and enter a realm where Time himself is the guide. In this cherished collection, Howard Pyle presents twenty-four marvelous tales—one for every hour of the day—drawn from the deep wells of folk tradition and reimagined with his signature wit and charm. From the adventures of clever peasants outsmarting giants to the journeys of kings seeking lost treasures, each hour brings a new discovery and a fresh glimpse into a world of “once upon a time.”

More than just a collection of stories, The Wonder Clock is a tapestry of imagination, weaving together whimsical verses by Katharine Pyle and Howard’s own world-renowned illustrations. These tales do not merely entertain; they cultivate a sense of wonder and a love for the noble and the true, making them a cornerstone of any child’s literary journey. It is an invitation to slow down, turn the key, and let the hours chime with the music of legendary storytelling.

The Wonder Clock is part of a complete collection of Howard Pyle’s legendary works, now available in a matching set from Living Book Press.
