Owl Moon Hardcover By Jane Yolen – One winter night, the little child and his father are spotted snoring. The trees are still as statues, and the world is as silent as an unreal dream. The father calls to the mysterious night-time bird.
There isn’t a single answer.
In silence, the two friends stroll along, because when you go to owl, there is no need for words. There is nothing more important than the hope. Sometimes, there’s no Owl, but there is.
A renowned writer Jane Yolen has created a soft, poetic tale that beautifully depicts the unique bond between a baby and her father, as the close connection of humankind with nature. Beautifully enhanced by John Schoenherr’s beautiful, soft drawings in watercolor, it book is an excellent visual and verbal treasure that is perfect for reading and sharing during time of bed.
