5 out of 5 stars Tear-Water Tea   December 6, 1999
 7 out of 7 found this review helpful

My mother read this book to me and my sister when I was four or five. Years later I had forgotten most of the book, but the concept of Tear-Water Tea stuck with me. During a conversation with friends when I was in college, something came up that made me think of the 'things that were sad' that Owl thinks of to make his tea. I absently remarked, "Spoons that have fallen behind the stove and are never seen again." and a friend automatically said, "Pencils that are too short to use." After a chorus of, "You read that book too! " I called home and asked mom, "Remember that book...what was the title?" And bought my own copy.

"Owl at Home" is a 'beginning readers' book, but it's perfect for all ages. Younger children will enjoy having it read aloud and adults will laugh at Owl's escapades along with the kids.


5 out of 5 stars Imaginative and sensitive children's book   October 13, 1999
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

"Owl at Home" is one of the most entertaining and sensitive children's books I have seen in a long time. Owl is such a comfortable, cozy figure who is filled with wonder and owl-eyed fascination with his world. When Owl makes tear-drop tea, his behavior transcends silliness and becomes almost tantric. This whole book is a treat!


5 out of 5 stars Delightful, humorous selection of short stories.   March 12, 1998

Owl At Home is a wonderful childrens book full of the sillyness of the character Owl. Children will delight in the loveable Owl and the short stories about his antics. Owl At Home can be read aloud to very young children and is also a excellent early-reader for an older child.
