New from the author of Wombat Cant Sing, Where Do the Stars Go and What Colour Is the Sea Little Owl has a big imagination. Home is boring and he longs to flee the nest. But when things dont turn out as planned he finds the confidence to accept that sometimes you need to change direction and set new goals. This gentle and wise story is perfect for parents, carers and grandparents to read-aloud with young children.
Katie Stewart is an author and illustrator. Born in the north of England, she came to Australia at the age of nine. She started her working life as an archaeologist and ethnohistorian, went on to teaching and then to being a mother. She later worked in a school library, but her lifelong dream was to be what she is now. She is married to a farmer, has three children and lives north of Northam, where her love of animals means she has a lot of pets and takes lots of nature photos. In her spare time, she tries to play the harp or wanders the countryside with a metal detector amusing the neighbours and occasionally finding an interesting piece of history.
