When going through stuff in the basement a while ago, we discovered this book from Ron's childhood. It was in his stuff, but it seems oddly familiar. Kelly, didn't we have some like this, with the holographic cover? I think we did... Either way, we set it aside for Lucy's enjoyment, and today I found it again and put it on her bookshelf.
Anyway, the illustrations are really photos of puppets with eyes that are solid color - not like
human eyes - which I find quite disturbing. This one is all about how to tell time, and the things these two puppets do throughout the day at various times.
Here they are enjoying their creepy supper at 6:00. Notice the puppet knives they each are holding. Is this not a recipe for nightmares? Of course, today when I set Lucy free to "read" (pull off the shelf and flip through) all her books this morning, what was the first book she went for?.... you guessed it!

i don't remember a book like this... definitely creepy, though. it's like they could come to life and crawl out of the book to eat you...or your baby.
I know I remember a book similar to this... maybe at one of our grandparents' homes...
