In The Exasperated Clock, the 12 numbers on the clock are silly, noisy, and
irresponsible. Consequently, the Clock decides to throw each of the numbers off which
becomes quite a problem because the numbers are on their own and are clueless.
Eventually each number finds a better job than working on the clock. Kids will giggle their
way through this book laughing at the antics of the numbers and their gainful, whimsical
and surreal employment.

Debbie Hickman was born in Vancouver, Washington, grew up in Idaho and is now living in Sierra Vista, Arizona with her family. In between she has lived and taught in Arizona, Bahrain, Kuwait, India, Turkey, Kazakhstan and Malaysia. She was inspired to write this story when learning that serious mathematicians often referred to numbers as their friends. Einstein's famous question What time is it really? gave momentum to her thinking as well. Of course, the response to her stories from her numerous imaginative young students over the years inspired her to keep telling and writing more stories. Other books by Hickman will be forthcoming about how each number evolved in their life beyond the clock. Stay tuned.
