From Kirkus: "A charming blend of whimsy and medieval heroism highlighting the triumph of brains over brawn."

One of my favorite picture books of 2022. It's charmingly illustrated, has an uplifting and encouraging plot, exciting medieval elements, and an adorable ending.

I think this book would be good for primary students. This book is about an Owl who wants to become a knight in his lands. When he does become a knight, he is the one to face the big bad dragon who turns out to be his friend in the end.

This book would be great for Intermediate children. This is a great story about an owl with a dream. I feel that it is an encouraging story showing children that you can do anything you put your mind to. This story is about an owl who dreams of being a knight. He applies to Knight school and gets accepted. He graduates and has night Knight duty. He has a scary encounter with a dragon but knows he is brave and they become good friends.
