. PICTURE BOOK. Page Street Kids, 2021. $18. 9781645671534 

BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K, EL (K-3) - ESSENTIAL 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH 

Because the little owl asks “Why” it is teased by all of the other owls. Because the little wolf asks “when” instead of “how”, he also is mocked by his pack. Both take off to get away from the others and together they get lost. Can they join forces to find their way home? 

A little bit of “Who’s on First”, but a lot of super adorable buddy comedy and family appreciating their different members. I’m not sure it will cure adults of feeling pestered by kids who ask a lot of questions, but it can help adults see life from their point of view too.
