LITTLE OWL'S DAY

Viking, 2014

These two books go hand in hand since the main character is the same. In fact they work together fabulously for a compare and contrast activity. The stories revolve around Little Owl and his experiences exploring the world around him, once at night and once during the day.

The True Story of Jackson the Owl
by Robbyn Smith van Frankenhuyzen
Illustrated by Gijsbert van Frankenhuyzen
Sleeping Bear Press, 2001
Picture Book
A thoroughly fascinating story about the bond between a great horned owl and the family who rescued and raised him before returning him to the wild. The gorgeous illustrations are the highlight here as the text is a bit word heavy for reading out loud. But still a great story.
