Unveiling the book
The sun goes to sleep and Mama and her baby owl wake up... it's time to fly into the night and unlock what it has to offer.
"The sun is setting. Open your eyes.
No more sleeping, little one, wake up! Surprise!"
Immediately sweet little owlet begins to fire questions at his Mama wondering about his safety and protection for the night. He asks questions like: Hoo'll catch me when I flutter and fall?, Hoo'll fly by my side and keep me in sight?, and Hoo'll make up a song and sing me a tune? just to name a few. Mama Owl patiently assures his little heart that she will be there to guide, play and protect him words that highlight his innocence and her incredible wisdom. They take to flight and observe many creatures of the forest: hedgehogs playing hide-and seek and peek-a-boo, foxes running halter-skelter, a big old bear scratching his back against a tree and bats hanging upside down from tree branches. Once safety back home Mama softly tells her little one, "Owl always love you!"
This sweet and heartwarming story is a perfect bedtime read. Kids will love the simple rhymes and the illustrations are truly beautiful and brilliant using a dark nightime pallet. This book celebrates a special bond of trust and love between a mother and her beloved baby owlet. The whole mood of the book is comforting, calming and reassuring making it ideal to share before you turn off the light and give a hug and kiss goodnight to your own little one. I highly recommend this book.
