Children's non-fiction book with vivid knowledge, great photos, and large print for children aged 5 and up. The demon of the night or, since Harry Potter, the messenger: owls have always fascinated us humans! This is also true for children. Using the barn owl, a species native to our region, the book covers everything about these nocturnal animals, from their habitat to their hunting methods, from mating to raising their young. Perfect for reading aloud and for early independent reading.
