Although I usually am not a huge fan of books or movies about anthropomorphic animals, I really have to say I enjoyed this one. What made this book so special in my opinion was the smaller messages you can find in the text. The owl did not want to hurt the tree he was sitting in, so he was gentle with his talons. How sweet can this book possibly be. This book reminds me of some childhood favorites of my own, like Frog and Toad and the Wind in the Willows. I love when a story is based around a lesson but does not come off sounding overly preachy. The only thing I thought might have made this book slightly more engaging for a young child is if there were a few more pictures. Otherwise, I loved this book and look forward to reading it to my children.
