Owly: The Way Home

By Andy Runton. Published by Scholastic.

Softcover, 160 pages, Color, 2004.

All Owly wants is a friend...

Owly is a good-natured little owl, and he's always helping those around him. But despite his kindness, he seems to frighten would-be friends away before they even give him a chance, just because he's an owl. That all changes, though, once Owly meets Wormy. Like Owly, Wormy is in need of a good friend, too -- someone who can be counted on for a helping hand, a good laugh, and a great adventure!

Through a unique blend of words and symbols, Owly can be read by the youngest readers, and is a great introduction to graphic novels!
