Description
A soothing winter's night is the perfect time for an owl hunt. A little girl and her father set out into the stillness, their footsteps quiet on the forest floor. The trees stand like statues, their branches etched against the moonlit sky. The father calls softly to the owls, his voice a gentle whisper in the darkness. But there is no answer, only the soft hooting of other birds and the rustle of leaves in the wind. Sometimes, an owl will appear, its wings spread wide as it takes flight. Other times, none will come. In this peaceful, wordless world, the girl and her father find a special kind of connection with nature. With its beautiful watercolor illustrations and gentle storytelling, Owl Moon is a treasure for a broad range of readers.
