Cayley and her grandfather have made nineteen clocks together, but now he has had a heart attack, and Cayley must help him to heal before they can return to making clocks.

Grandfather Clock, who can turn himself into the time, passes the day by going for a walk.

Woodworker's manual demonstrates the building of a grandfather clock, from workshop preparation to purchase of the mechanisms and interior pieces to the design and joinery of the finished product

Jamie's adventure begins with his summer holiday at Aunt Jane's Flamingo Pink cottage and the 'Twist of a Key' in an old wooden Grandfather's Clock. He can't believe he is faced with the 'Challenge of Chime' or the doom that will come if he does not complete all the challenges ahead of him successfully. Jamie delights in meeting his new friends especially the Time-Keeper who explains how he is the 'Chosen Guest' in their Enchanted Land. The evil Time-Taker has quite a different plan and is determined to see Jamie fail his mission. He plots to take the Crown of Cogs from the Time-Keeper and will not tolerate any child getting in his way.

"The grandfather clock, an entirely new kind of furniture, first appeared in the late seventeenth century. From then on, with its long case to protect pendulum and weights, its rugged movement and large, clear indication of time, it has been a success story right up to the present day. Virtually none of these clocks is beyond repair and often the work required is within the scope of inexperienced owners. This is the first full-length book to cover repair and restoration of these attractive and often valuable antiques, including their casework. The first part outlines how to clean and service the clock 'works' and also how to refurbish the dial, while in the second part restoration or casework, both structural repairs and finishing, is considered. The illustrations are of two actual clocks (one eight-day and one thirty-hour) and work proceeding on them. The last part of the book sketches common variations from these particular examples. Armed with this book and appropriate tools (for work on both movement and case), the owner of a dilapidated grandfather clock will be encouraged and given the know-how to restore it to life as a useful and attractive clock and a prized possession."--Wheelers.co.nz.
