Celebrating over 30 years of the beloved classic Owl Moon from renowned childrenâs book author Jane Yolen and Caldecott Medal-winning illustrator John Schoenherr!
Late one winter night a little girl and her father go owling. The trees stand still as statues and the world is silent as a dream. Whoo-whoo-whoo, the father calls to the mysterious nighttime bird.
But there is no answer.
Wordlessly the two companions walk along, for when you go owling, you donât need words. You donât need anything but hope. Sometimes there isnât an owl, but sometimes there is.
Distinguished author Jane Yolen has created a gentle, poetic story that lovingly depicts the special companionship of a young child and her father as well as humankindâs close relationship to the natural world. Wonderfully complemented by John Schoenherrâs soft, exquisite watercolor illustrations, this is a verbal and visual treasure, perfect for reading aloud and sharing at bedtime.
