Silent and wide-eyed, owls are hidden creatures of the night. Janie has always dreamed of finding one. She searches everywhere for signs of an owl–on the open prairie for short-eared owls, on the beach for snowy owls, and for great horned owls in the woods near her home. But months go by, and she sees no owls. She wonders, what will it take to see an owl?

When a fire starts near their home, all of the animals—from the largest elephant to the smallest ant—are too scared to do anything but watch. All, that is, except for one tiny hummingbird. She knows she must do something to save her nest. She must do what she can.

When history-loving Ajay discovers an amazing old book in the library, with a beautiful map of Willow Wish Woods, he knows it's something special. It tells the story of the Red-Winged Prince, who cared for the forest long ago and looked after the animals. When Ajay sees that the woods are being damaged by a gang of older boys, he decides to be brave like the prince and stand up for what is right.

Orris the rat and Timble the owl are unlikely friends. Each night, Timble visits Orris in the barn and listens to his stories. But Timble is growing up, and one evening when the owl doesn’t appear as usual Orris wonders if Timble has forgotten him. Is their friendship over? Or could it be that Timble has a tale of his own to share? The second title in a projected trilogy to feature this charmingly offbeat pair masterfully explores the stories we tell ourselves, the stories we tell each other, and the binding magic of friendship.

From the loss of her cherished barn to finding hope and a new home, discover the resilience and beauty of barn owls like Emily in I am Emily the Owl. Learn what sustains these graceful hunters, from their hunts for voles and mice to the snug boxes that become their sanctuaries.
