Owl (Pb) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781773661971)

The boy's grandfather had long told him about the barred owl that lives in the oldest part of the forest near his home. Determined to meet Owl, the boy visits the forest everyday and gently calls to her. But owls sleep during the day and are awake at night when children are sound asleep. Will the boy ever see Owl from the old forest? This heartfelt story about a child's search for an elusive owl illustrates that when we connect with nature, we are surrounded by love, though we might not always see it.

Told with gentle text and naturalistic artwork, young readers will discover a boy's tender bond with an owl, and they too will learn how to make the barred owl's call, fostering a lifelong love and relationship with nature.
