When three baby owls wake in the middle of the night, they find their mother gone. Wishing she would come home, they fret and worry and try to be brave until, at last, she does. This extraordinary story, now a sturdy board book, offers the gentle promise needed by every young child that Mommy will always come home. From the winner of the 2004 Hans Christian Andersen Medal!

Adam ★★★★★

The nighttime setting and gentle resolution really help with bedtime anxiety; my son asks for this one every night now. The story's rhythm makes it easy to read aloud, and the soft illustrations keep him engaged even after multiple readings.

Mia E. ★★★★☆

My toddler loves the "I want my mommy!" refrain so much that he finishes the sentence before I can. The board book pages are sturdy enough for his enthusiastic page-turning, though I wish the illustrations were a tiny bit brighter.
