The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark

My 3 years old loves this book

Received in one day, the book has pictures that makes it interesting to read. My daughter loved it. Also it has really thick paper your kid won’t tear the pages lol

Très chouette livre 😋structure de phrase répétitive mais joli vocabulaire.je le raconte à mes enfants en français puis leur lirai progressivement en anglais. Jolis dessins

Arrived much faster than was expected. Great story with beautiful illustrations. A nice addition to the kids library.

Beautifully covered the topic of the dark, my kids loved this gorgeous little book

Jill Tomlinson, the brilliant author of this book - The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark - as well as quite a few others of a similar vein, must have mainlined her inner child when developing Plop, the main character in this wonderful story. Plop is a young barn owl. Plop is a hungry, young barn owl. Plop is a hungry, young barn owl frightened of the dark, and Plop's poor, exhausted parents are at their wits end about the whole situation. Between hunting trips & way too few naps, Plops parents -rather than forcing him to face his fear unprepared- urge him to learn as much as he can about the dark. Plop achieves this by approaching a few of the characters who happen to be within sight of his nesting tree. Wait a minute...I need to stop. There is no way I can even come close to summarizing this story for you that would do it the justice it so well deserves. Buy the book...really! I will, however, say that this is one of the BEST children's stories I have EVER had the privlege of reading, let alone sharing with my child. My little girl (who is 7, as of today) is very much like Plop. She's intelligent, precocious, outgoing -and dare I say it?- a HOOT! And, also like Plop, she fears the dark. The story kept both of us interested the entire time, & we shared so many laughs! And, on the last night of the story my brave little girl asked me to turn off the light... Whether you are looking for a book to help a child deal with this fear, or if you are just looking for a great book to read to (or with) a child, I'd say this book is a guaranteed WINNER! Buy the book! I am looking forward to reading three other books by Jill Tomlinson I bought for my girl's birthday; the ones with the cat, the otter, and the aardvark. I have no doubt they were created with the same magic as this one. Check them out. Enjoy!

My child is turning 6 years old she loves the story and the pictures in the book. Good buy.
