Welcome to Owl School! Professor Olaf is here to help you determine if you have what it takes to be an owl. Great vision? Silent feathers? Sharp ears? See if you really want to be an owl afterall.

This whimsical and comical book about many characteristics of owls will educate and entertain at the same time. The illustrations are cartoonish and help keep the story from being too overwhelmed with information. There is a LOT in this book — lots of text, lots of information, and lots of fun. Hand this one to kids who love humor, birds, and owls. Recommended for readers 4 and up.
