much loved, multi-award winning author

This is a superb story of human and animal interaction. Your deep love and knowledge of owls and how humans, especially children, can rescue and assist them is heartening. The illustrations are simple and have a gorgeous shining real quality that accompanies the drama and its resolution. And how wonderful that this resolution is possible, even if not always applied.

It will certainly inspire children to understand and treasure the wildlife around them. Perhaps even inspire a few into a job with and a love for our parks and wildlife service.

The notes at the back of the book will be fascinating for teachers, parents and children.

Boo and the Big Storm will have young children enchanted by Wendy Lawrence’s simple, heart-warming tale about a curious young Boobook Owl who is rescued by a kindly farmer after falling out of its nestling hollow.  The adult reading the story will fall for wide-eyed Boo too, as she is possibly the cutest little critter ever to grace a storybook, thanks to the gorgeous artwork of Glen Vause.  Every element of this book hits the spot, making the reading of it a delight for both child and parent.
