Tommy's name was Tommy O'Toole, but his family called him "Tommy-Too-Late." Because that's what he was—always late. Includes real clock hands inside the front book cover. Publisher's Note: For many years we have wanted to bring out, at the lowest possible price, a book with real watch hands that would teach young children how to tell time. Here it is at last, and we hope that with the help of this little book millions of future adults will learn to be on time, and not to keep their husbands and/or wives waiting.
