Billywise by Judith Nicholls
This book is suitable for the age-range 4+. 'From a mole-black hole in the oldest oak, deep in the heart of the fern-brushed wood', in this poetic and atmospheric text, the first faltering steps of a little owl chick are depicted, from the struggle out of the egg, to the final exhilerating first swoop of flight. A lyrical text from a children's poet is complemented by stunning artwork by prize-winning artist Jason Cockcroft.
