An owl wanted a warm place to stay, so he found it. He woke up surrounded by hens who were all shocked he was in there. The hens decided to test him, but he couldn't peck like a hen or scratch, and he especially couldn't cock-a-doodle like a hen either. There was one hen who decided she would teach him how to be a hen, but even when he learned a lot of things that hens do, the others were still not impressed. The little owl still couldn't cock-a-doodle like them! Then one hen was freaking out because there was a rat in the barn eating their food! The owl went in and did he owl thing, he gobbled up the rat! Once the hens saw what he did, they accepted him and he became a part of them!
This book is adorably illustrated and I love the way it is laid out. I would have probably enjoyed it more if there was some rhyming in it, but I like the way the hens finally did accept him even though the owl was different than they were. I loved the lesson of accepting others no matter what they look like, there is something special about them!
Mischief Managed.
