Since the day he hatched, Owl dreamed of becoming a real knight. He
may not be the biggest or the strongest, but his sharp nocturnal
instincts can help protect the castle, especially since many
knights have recently gone missing. While holding guard during
Knight Night Watch, Owl is faced with the ultimate trial-a
frightening intruder. It's a daunting duel by any measure. But what
Owl lacks in size, he makes up for in good ideas. Full of wordplay
and optimism, this surprising display of bravery proves that
cleverness (and friendship) can rule over brawn.
Fairies are real, but their power is waning . . . Embark on the
adventure of a lifetime and discover the magic of Goblyn Wood, with
