What could possibly go wrong when three intrepid mice decide to go into business making clocks? Find out in this colorful, hilarious storybook that boys and girls will want to read again and again.
Hickory, Dickory, and Doc are three brothers who just happen to be mice. They decide to go into business making clocks and launch The Hickory Dickory Doc Clock Factory Limited!
It was a brilliant plan! Hickory was a good carpenter. He could cut out the numbers and the hands of the clocks. Dickory was a good painter. He could paint the clocks. Doc was the oldest and cleverest of the three. He would be in charge of making the insides of the clock.
What could go wrong? As it turns out, a lot, when each and every clock gets wound the wrong way and time starts to run backward. Everyone started doing everything backward. People wore socks over shoes. They wore their underwear OVER their pants! All the clocks need to be fixed.
In the end, lessons are learned, neighbors are friends, and The Hickory Dickory Dock Clock Factory Limited is a great success. If you've heard of Mickey Mouse and the Three Blind Mice, you'll love the story of these three adventurous, adorable brothers: Hickory, Dickory, and Doc!
