 Owly is a perfect read aloud for children of all ages. October 28, 1998
27 out of 27 found this review helpful
As an elementary school librarian, I have read Owly so many times, I could recite it. Always, it holds the children as if they were experiencing Owly's adventures in answering his own questions and, ultimately, hearing from his mother how much she loves him. Every child should hear Owly read to him by someone who loves him without limit.
The Easiet Way To Explain a Parent's Love March 26, 1998

When my son was a toddler reading him "Owly" was the best way for me to explain to him how very much he was loved.This simple story tells children, in measurements they understand, the boundless love of a parent. Seven years after first reading "Owly", whenever my son asks how much I love him, my immediate response is still "more than there are stars in the sky". Any child, regardless of age, should read this beautiful story.
Best Child's GoodNight Book August 2, 1997

This book is the best good-night book I ever read to my daughter - She always went to sleep with the warmest feeling of love I could hope for.Owly asks questions like any two year old, and the last being "how much do you love me mommy" - mommy answers to the effect that her love is wider than the oceans, more than the number of stars in the sky, etc. Very simple, very warm, very loving bedtime story.
