Not good. And not just that I didn't like it, but I don't think it's a good book either. Kinda creepy actually.

Oikeasti hauska tarina, vaikka tietenkin täysin ennalta-arvattava.

A sweet story about the proper way to keep yourself safe when home alone.

Reminded me for some reason of the book The Dirty Cowboy by Amy Timberlake.

This is a great Storytime book for subjects like - strangers, safety, three little pigs or even just owls.

A funny and endearing story that ideally leads to opening a discussion with small children about stranger danger. Aside from that, it's an assuring story about the people who know and love you best.

When Mommy Owl goes out for Little Owl's favorite food, Little Owl wants to follow her directions to not let anyone in--even when Mommy Owl returns.

Little owl gave in too soon. I would have had my mom answer at least 10 security questions before opening the door.

Our 6-year old has borrowed this now twice from library. I had forgotten that the ending is so cute. After reading we discussed together what kind of secrets we share.
