Bufniţa care se temea de întuneric by Jill Tomlinson, Viorel Staicu
4.0
I was surprised by how invested I was in this book, even though it's a children's story. I had bought it as a gift for a kid because of another review, and thought I could give it a read to see if it makes a good present.
This book follows Plop the baby owl, an unusual night bird - he's afraid of the dark - and the little adventures he goes on in order to overcome his fear of darkness. Plop is pushed by his mom to go talk to people about the darkness - such as the old lady, the girl, or the boy scout. These characters teach him small lessons and show him reasons not to fear the darkness: the fireworks, the fun, the stars.
As a character, Plop the little owl is adorable, and so are the illustrations of him. In fact, all of the illustrations in the book are cute and Paul Howard did a great job on them.
I recommend this book and I definitely think that every kid could benefit from reading or being read this story.
