Owls in the Family
Farley Mowat
Set in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, this classic children's novel follows the adventures of a young boy named Billy and his two rescued great horned owls, Wol and Weeps. Wol is a bold and resourceful bird who prefers walking to flying and believes himself to be human, while Weeps is a timid, anxious owl who never learns to fly and seeks protection from the family dog, Mutt. Together with Billy's eccentric collection of pets, the owls turn the household upside down, terrorize the neighborhood cats, and cause hilarious chaos in this heartwarming story based on the author's own childhood experiences in rural Canada.
