Going owling is an exercise in patience and endurance, but the payoff can be enormous. The young child in this book learns these lessons but is rewarded by seeing a big, beautiful owl closeup and then watching it fly off into the forest.
Set during one of the most tumultuous years in recent American history, one crazy summer is the heartbreaking, funny tale of three girls in search of the mother who abandoned them - an unforgettable story told by a distinguished author of books for children and teens, Rita Williams-Garcia.
