This endearing story is excellent at outlining the importance of friendship and teaches young readers especially preteens to talk about their issues if they are depressed.
The owl, Tristan, is rejected by all other animals in the woods because he is just not normal; always off-balance.
It takes the curious cat, Emily to come along and change all that. She helps set up safety nets around Tristan to prevent him getting as hurt when he loses his balance. Although it takes some time for trust to develop, she perseveres and carefully starts introducing new lifestyle choices to Tristan that may help him combat his depression.
