Five Minutes: (That's a Lot of Time) (No, It's Not) (Yes, It Is)

How long is five minutes? That all depends. Are you waiting in line at the post office,
"Five minutes is an eternity!"

or are you playing arcade games at the carnival,
"Please? Just five more minutes?"

Five Minutes: (That's a lot of time) (No, it's not) (Yes,it is) is a brightly illustrated, humorous look at the concept of time through the eyes of a young boy.

Yep, five minutes can seem long or short depending on what you're doing. Case in point, the five minutes spent reading this repetitive book seemed way too long.

A fun way to explore the way time feels vs. how it passes.

Time is relative...five minutes can seem like a long time or a short time, depending on the context (in line at the dry cleaners or the bank, watching puppies in a pet shop window, waiting for the bathroom or in line at an amusement park).
