Description

A magical nighttime story for little ones about overcoming your fears and standing tall on your own two feet. From Kate Rolfe, the award-winning creator of Wiggling Words and Wolf and Bear, shortlisted for the Waterstones Children's Book Prize and the Carnegie Medal for Illustration.

When Moon shines down, Owl's toes feel tingly and her wings feel fluttery, and she can't help but dance in the moonlight. But what happens when Moon begins to wane and Owl is left in the darkness? Will she find the inner strength to venture out beyond her treetop home and dance anyway?

Owl and Moon is an uplifting story for young children about resilience, friendship, and how to shine your light even in the deepest dark, that will bring a touch of comfort and magic to bedtime.
