The Noisy Clock Shop

 Another fun book about sounds and noises accompanied by Art Seiden's colorful midcentury pictures.  Seriously, how wonderful are all the clock illustrations?!  

Mr. Winky, the clock mender, decides to leave his shop and go where there is no noise.   He travels all the way out into the countryside, only to realize that there are noises everywhere, and he's happy to return to the familiar tickity tick and dings and dongs of his clocks shop.

(I can't explain it, but I am such a sucker for faux bois!  I collect a lot of midcentury, vintage images because of it.)
