Owl Moon by Jane Yolen is a beautifully written and illustrated children's book that tells the story of a young girl who goes on a nighttime adventure with her father to go "owling," or searching for owls in the woods. The story captures the quiet, magical experience of walking through the snowy forest under a full moon, hoping to spot an owl.
The narrative is poetic and serene, emphasizing the deep bond between the father and daughter, as well as the peacefulness of nature. The book's themes include patience, the beauty of the natural world, and the special moments shared between parent and child. The illustrations by John Schoenherr complement the text perfectly, bringing the wintry night to life.
