A review by bookwomble
The Secret Life of the Owl by John Lewis-Stempel
informative
fast-paced
2.5
Meh.
Swathes of factoids that might be gleaned from Wikipedia, padded out with a chunk of the Middle English poem The Owl and the Nightingale, and with a couple of nods to "intelligent design" and creationism, I was underwhelmed and won't be bothering with anything else by this author.
Lovely owl sketches by Beci Kelly, though.
