A songwriter once wrote about being "thankful for a season in your path." This sentiment plays out in this gentle but delightful story of unlikely friendships, the pursuit of dreams, and the return of joy after grief. The characters and the connections between them —both past and presentdemonstrate our need for one another, even when our time together is only for a season.

Gorgeous illustrations and charming text equally tell this story of courage and bravery, large and confident traits for a little owl who is neither. But knight school arms Owl with skills that put him in good stead when an imposing character tests his mettle one night while Owl's on duty. An absolute delight.

Rabbit and Turtle repeat their famous race--this time on their way to school. Rabbit runs; Turtle takes the bus. Who will win?
