A little owl is determined to explore the world in the daytime. But is that a good idea? Petr Horácek brings his vibrant and visual humor to a cautionary tale of curiosity--and a mother's comfort.

Dawn is coming, and Tiny Owl really wants to explore the day. Mama Owl explains that owls need to sleep when the sun is up so they can fly at night. But Tiny Owl isn't sleepy! And she isn't scared! So when Mama is sound asleep, Tiny Owl sneaks out of the nest. Flying in the sunshine is so exciting! Resting near some beautiful flowers is lovely! (What is that swishing sound in the grass?) Watching the fish in the river is fun! (Is that a creeping noise by the water's edge?) The noises may be a little scary, but Tiny Owl feels safe here on a branch with lots of other birds. Wait, why is everyone suddenly flying off, leaving her alone? She wants to go home! With expressive art, rich in color and texture, acclaimed creator Petr Horácek tells a classic tale of a child's venture out of the nest, knowing a mother's protective love awaits her return.
