Under an ominous black sky, the rain falls in torrents. The once tranquil Revere River swells sending the people of Grant, Massachusetts heading for higher ground--and Med Center. As flood victims pour into the hospital, the staff and volunteers dive into the life-and-death action.

Review:
This is a time book with a difference. All it takes is a few hours for Tom to paint the living room completely red--about three seconds to decide what to do with the paint, five minutes to get the lid off, three hours of painting. Once his mother has calmed down--10 seconds of exploding, one day to calm down, it takes a further three weeks to put everything right. Each step in the recovery process is documented in Stephen Tucker's hilarious dead-pan text and Nick Sharratt's hilarious, colourful illustrations.

This is a very simple picture book which is ideal for reading aloud and sharing with young children who will delight in Tom's naughtiness and be fascinated by the steps necessary to put things right. Nick Sharratt's colourful, distinctive and very funny illustrations provide the perfect accompaniment to this delightful picture story book. (Ages 3 to 7)

Synopsis:
Take a tin of red paint. Take a boy called Tom. Mix the two together. How long will it take Tom before the trouble starts? This picture book introduces the concept of time to very young children in an amusing way.
