Owls in the Family |
Billy is a boy who likes to adopt
exotic pets. He’s got 30 gophers, a
bunch of rats, a cardboard box full of garter snakes, at least 10 pigeons,
rabbits, and Mutt the dog, all of whom live with him and his family at their
home in Saskatchewan.
Billy and two of his friends decide that they would like
to adopt an owl. With a little help from
one of their teachers, they manage to get two owls that they take to Billy’s
house. He names them Wol and Weeps.
With a five-foot wingspan and inch-long claws, these owls
are not your usual pets. Wol especially
is a tough bird and can defend himself against any other animal, including
neighbourhood dogs. Billy and his owls have many humorous adventures, often ending with one owl riding home on Billy's bike handlebars.
A hilarious tale about boys and animals, Owls In The Family will
appeal to anyone who loves a great story.
