About the Book

Get to know these rare and beautiful birds in this warmly illustrated non-fiction picture book with story CD. The little girl in this book has never seen a barn owl, but one day her grandpa puts a nest-box high in the old oak tree. They wait and they wait until one spring night, just as the sky goes pink, a pale face looks out of it, then takes off towards them... A non-fiction picture-book by one of today's most acclaimed authors. In the accompanying CD, actor Stephen Tompkinson explores the wonderful world of barn owls through information, music and story.

Review :
Lovely…the quietly lyrical text is accompanied by Foreman’s quietly beautiful illustrations. As in her previous titles…zoologist Davies pulls kids into the animal world with an atmospheric story that is filled with facts. With a big assist from Michael Foreman’s shimmering watercolors, British zoologist Nicola Davies captures the bird’s ethereal beauty. Gorgeous illustrations highlight this informative science book. Created by two of the most talented folks in the field…the text delivers a narrative that kids can latch on to and additional text boxes deliver more information as does the appendix. [The] facts…smoothly complement the story, although the narrative and nonfiction components can be read independently. This lovely title will be enjoyed widely for personal reading and teaching purposes. The zoologist-author who delivered both solid science and appealing whimsy in “Poop: A Natural History of the Unmentionable” turns to a more traditional storytelling format. Michael Foreman featured as illustrator of the week Beautifully illustrated…many intriguing facts about barn owls are discussed.
