Stunning illustrations capture the owls as they worry about their mother: What is she doing? When will she be back? Not surprisingly, a joyous flapping and dancing and bouncing greets her return, lending a celebratory tone to the ending of this comforting tale. Never has the plight of young ones who miss their mother been so simply told or so beautifully rendered.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMartin Waddell\u003c\/b\u003e wanted \u003ci\u003eOwl Babies\u003c\/i\u003e to capture the \"strong emotion of 'I want my mommy!'\" that is so familiar to children.
