This is adorable and I can see it being very fun to read to young children, especially the first couple of stories. Not sure what I think about the tear soup story, haha (do children really enjoy reading about crying owls?), but other than that, I enjoyed the charming and easy-to-read style, and the amusing zany collection of mishaps by poor Owl. The audio version is excellent as well - crisp, clear, and read with expression. Such a fun one!
