Night Owl by Toni Yuly

Night Owl by Toni Yuly follows one little baby owl in his late night search for mommy owl. Yuly cleverly offers up various sounds you might encounter late at night — trains, toads, crickets, and more.

The illustrations are as simple and sweet as the prose — combining to tell a story that is easy for little readers to understand and follow along.

Each new night noise gives kids an opportunity to try making the sounds themselves, as mom or dad read aloud. Ambitious young readers should also be able to give this one a go reading to themselves, too.

Night Owl is in stores January 27th.
