Owly is a kind, yet lonely little owl who knows what it means to be human. The fourth graphic novel in the award-winning, all-ages series tells the story of a new visitor to the forest. He may be misunderstood because of how he looks, but things aren't always what they seem, and everyone soon finds out that the power of friendship can fix just about anything. Relying on a mixture of symbols, icons and expressions, Andy Runton's animated and heartwarming style makes it a perfect read.
