It's nighttime, so of course Owl is "wide awake and ready to play!" She asks her (diurnal) friends to join her, but they're all too tired. Kind Owl helps everyone get to sleep, then sadly returns home. When morning comes, the others want to play--after Owl's nap. Subdued but cheerful hues and midnight-blue backgrounds are just right for the gentle story.
