What is Rush Hour about?

Dad is late for work, and the morning is turning into a frantic rush. He searches the house for everything he needs, but each missing item makes the clock seem to tick faster. As the family joins in, ordinary rooms become a busy trail of clues, surprises and funny moments. Will Dad find his things in time, or will the rush-hour journey begin before he is ready? With familiar situations, lively dialogue and simple details, this is an engaging story for new readers.
