Description

Owl is ready for bed. But as soon as he settles in, he hears a strange noise. He'll never get to sleep unless he can figure out what's going on!

He looks everywhere-in his cupboard, underneath the floorboards-even in his walls. But while he's busy tearing his house apart, he doesn't notice one tiny, squeaky, mouse-shaped detail. . . . Will Owl ever get a good night's sleep

Reviews

"A funny tale about stress and an ever-upping ante, with a comforting end."--Kirkus Reviews
"Entertaining bedtime drama that works equally well for new readers and for sharing aloud."--Horn Book
"Kids will be greatly amused by Pizzoli's latest effort."--School Library Journal
"Pizzoli's bright colors, mid-century modern details, and fuzz outlines offer a zingy counterbalance to Owl's increasingly frazzled mental state."--Publishers Weekly
