"Little Owl braves the unknown in this book that's just perfect for Halloween!
The bats have invited Little Owl to visit their cavern! He's never been to that part of the forest and feels a shiver of excitement at the thought. But when Skunk reveals that he once saw something strange near the cavern, Little Owl worries about what he might find on the way. Good thing he'll have his friend Raccoon by his side!
As they make their way, fog comes tumbling down the mountains. Veiled in mist, even the usual places look mysterious. But that turns out to be half the fun.
In his beloved night forest, where good friends are never too far away, Little Owl discovers that strange can also be WONDERFUL!"
"The star of Little Owl's Night returns to find love in his beloved nighttime forest.
'What do I love?' Little Owl thought.
There were so many things. . .
Gliding along on a quiet night, Little Owl looks for the things that make him happy--shimmering stars, winking fireflies, listening to the cricket song, and most of all, spending time with his good friends. Lyrical and deeply heartfelt, Little Owl's Love is perfect for Valentine's Day and is a love letter to the natural world on a child's level."
"The creator of Little Owl's Night explores and celebrates the complexities of what makes us who we are in this comforting and thoughtful picture book, adapted for audio.
A young narrator describes herself: a girl, a granddaughter, Indian, and American. Soon, we see the young girl as a plethora of things: selfish and generous, mean and kind, brave and mischievous. While many of these qualities oppose each other, the context makes it abundantly clear that she speaks the truth. She is a walking contradiction, and that is precisely what makes her both a unique individual and an essential piece of the greater world around her. Divya Srinivasan shows what makes us human and proud to be who we are."
"Little Owl's Night (narrated by Janet Varney): It's evening in the forest and Little Owl wakes up from his day-long sleep to watch his friends enjoying the night. Hedgehog sniffs for mushrooms, Skunk nibbles at berries, Frog croaks, and Cricket sings. A full moon rises and Little Owl can't understand why anyone would want to miss it. Could the daytime be nearly as wonderful? Mama Owl begins to describe it to him, but as the sun comes up, Little Owl falls fast asleep.
Little Owl's Day (narrated by Dave Hill): Chikit-chikit-chik! A squirrel is chittering. Bees are buzzing. The sun is high in the sky. And Little Owl is supposed to be asleep, but when he wakes up early, he's just too curious to close his eyes again. The forest he knows so well at nighttime is completely different-and exciting-in the day! After watching butterflies dance, wolf pups play, and then his very first rainbow, Little Owl returns to his tree. He has many new stories for his mama.
Little Owl's Snow (narrated by John Hodgman): 'Winter's almost here!' says Little Owl, as he observes leaves falling, animal friends hibernating, and a chill from his feathers to his feet. And just as he and his friend raccoon are watching their breath make fog in the cold air, it happens: Snow!"
