Owl Moon
Today we read a book called "Owl Moon". It's a Caldecott Award winner from 1988. I found this video of the Author reading it aloud. I thought the kids might enjoy hearing it again tonight. Listen to how the author uses her voice differently on each page. Also, keep your ears open for "Million Dollar Words". Can you catch any? Oh! One more thing...a book order came home in the kid's backpacks today. Owl moon is one of the selections if you're interested. It's part of the Caldecott pack! Keep your ears open for any owls calling tonight.
