About this product

Product Information

A heart-warming classic full of animal antics by Jill Tomlinson. Plop, the Baby Barn Owl, is like every Barn Owl there ever was, except for one thing - he is afraid of the dark. Dark is nasty he says and so he won't go hunting with his parents. Mrs Barn Owl sends him down from his nest-hole to ask about the dark and he meets a little boy waiting for the fireworks to begin, an old lady, a scout out camping, a girl who tells him about Father Christmas, a man with a telescope and a black cat who takes him exploring. He realizes that through these encounters that dark is super after all. Filled with gentle humour and comfort, Jill Tomlinson's animal stories have been enjoyed by children who want to snuggle down with a good read for decades. This edition of The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark is beautifully illustrated by Paul Howard.

  • A really lovely tale

    I read this to my own children and it is now being enjoyed by my grandson. Beware that a beautifully illustrated picture book about 30 pages long is a very much abridged version of this 100 pages plus version and loses much of the whit and charm

  • Loved by young and old alike.

    Read this book when I was a child and bought to read with my children, they both loved it as much as I did at their age and loved the trip back down memory Lane. Would highly recommend to anyone with children a real fab story and touches on being afraid of the dark and why not to be (as a child never really noticed as an adult can pick up the relevance).
