Owl has always dreamed of being a knight. No one believes he can, but when knights start disappearing, he applies to knight school. Upon his acceptance he goes to the school and works extra hard to prove himself worthy. Owl is then given an assignment of night watch on the tower. One night a dragon attacks and it is up to Owl to save the day. Will he succeed?

This is one that will become an instant favorite! It is full of humor and cute antics that you won't be able to stop talking about. The illustrations are so adorable and really add to the sweet nature of the story. Knight Owl is unforgettable and a story that will be enjoyed by anyone that picks it up.

Faces of the Moon by Bob Crelin

Faces of the Moon by Bob Crelin Illustrated by Leslie Evans Charlesburg; 2009; unpaged Faces of the Moon is a short nonfiction book that describes the different phases of the moon and why the moon appears like it does on certain nights. This book is short and sweet so even the youngest of moon lovers will enjoy it. The layout is simplistic and easy to follow. I don’t know much about the moon so I found it very interesting.
