Little Owl's Night

A unique twist on a bedtime story, this gorgeously illustrated book is the perfect comfort for any child who’s curious about what goes on at night.

It’s evening in the forest, and Little Owl has just woken up from his day-long slumber to watch his friends enjoying the night. There’s Hedgehog, who sniffs around for mushrooms; Skunk, who nibbles at berries; Frog, who croaks; and Cricket, who sings. As the full moon rises, Little Owl wonders how anyone would want to miss it. Could the daytime be nearly as wonderful? But as Mama Owl begins to describe it to him, Little Owl falls fast asleep!

This soothing and immersive bedtime story is an invitation for little ones to learn all about nature’s nocturnal creatures, and provides comfort for those who have ever wondered what happens while they sleep.Praise for LITTLE OWL’S NIGHT by Divya Srinivasan:"This debut picture book gets it all just right. The story, while familiar, is executed deftly and with heart, and the crisp graphic elements of the artwork juxtapose well against the pretty prose." --Booklist, starred review "The story's chief virtue is its graceful, balletic prose... It's a provocative inversion of the classic bedtime story, and a solid first outing.

Hold on to Little Owl's tail feathers and soar." --Kirkus Reviews"This exceptional first book by Srinivasan, a talented illustrator... follows Little Owl during his nighttime explorations... this bedtime tale may even convert children who are afraid of the dark into adventuresome night owls" -New York Times Book Review"This is the most visually and verbally gorgeous picture book of the year... Simple, dazzling - and simply dazzling." --The Boston GlobeDivya Srinivasan (www.pupae.com) lives in Austin, Texas. Little Owl's Night is her first book.
