LITTLE OWL'S LOVE

Divya Srinivasan

The star of Little Owl's Night returns to find love in his beloved nighttime forest.
"What do I love" Little Owl thought.
There were so many things.
Gliding along on a quiet night, Little Owl looks for the things that make him happy--shimmering stars, winking fireflies, listening to the cricket song, and most of all, spending time with his good friends.

Lyrical and deeply heartfelt, Little Owl's Love is a love letter to the natural world on a child's level.
