An adventurous and heart-warming picture book about a sparky little owl who is determined to leave the nest during the day, by internationally acclaimed author-illustrator, Petr Horacek.
Tiny Owl wants to explore the day. Mummy Owl says the day can be dangerous but Tiny Owl isn't scared! So, when Mummy Owl is asleep, Tiny Owl tiptoes out of the nest and flies off. There are all kinds of other birds and animals out during the day, and everything is so colourful!
But maybe night-time is best for owls after all...
