A country runs like clockwork, until it doesn't.
In the most punctual country in the world, a giant, bossy clock keeps life ticking perfectly. But when it suddenly stops, chaos erupts-routines crumble and grown-ups flounder. Then a quick-witted little girl takes charge. She shows everyone how to tell time for themselves and soon restores order to the day.
A light-hearted tale that celebrates independence and imagination.
