Description

Owly, the little owl with a heart of gold, returns for another forest adventure in this Eisner-winning series about friendship!

Owly always reaches out to a friend in need.

Owly is a wonderful friend! He's honest, trustworthy, and kind. And whenever any of his pals are in trouble, he always finds a way to help. In this collection of nine stand-alone stories, Owly demonstrates the power of friendship by cheering up his friends when they're down, rescuing his friends when they're in danger, and encouraging his friends when they doubt themselves. But Owly's buddies also show what it means to be a great friend in return!

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