Like all good owl, the Owl family only ask “who”. That is until Oliver – who asks all the other questions too.  With his best friend, Bug, he explores the woods close by.  Then one day Bug is swept away down the river. Oliver gives chase and along the way asks more questions of new friends – which is a good things, because those questions are what they need to find their way back to the big tree of home.


This may be Otis’ first author/illustrator book, but it is absolutely adorable!  I am in love with Oliver – both his ball-shaped cuteness and his endearing manner.  Otis’ years as an animator really show.
