Praise

★ “A title easily summed up in a single word: magic.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review

★ “Taut, suspense-heightening sentences combine with deliberate pacing as well as tender observations of earnest efforts and mentorship.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review

★ “The stunning story is a splendid celebration of the wonder of nature….A particularly pleasurable exploration of the magic that the world reveals to those who approach it with patience.” —Booklist, starred review

★ “Children often dive wholeheartedly into their interests….When something sparks their curiosity, they explore it with pure enthusiasm, driven by a sense of wonder and joy. This is precisely what Matthew Cordell captures so skillfully in To See an Owl, using plain language and short, impactful phrasing.” —BookPage, starred review

Gentle and earnest….The laser-focus on one single thing will ring true for many kids and adults alike, so current (or former) dino fans, truck enthusiasts, and cat whisperers will find a kindred spirit with our aspiring ornithologist.” —The Bulletin

“Both compelling and informational, the story of Janie’s quest, like the experience of finally sighting a pair of owls, is ‘magic.'” —The Horn Book

A perfectly lovely picture book for the owl obsessed.” —School Library Journal
