Illustrated by
Jeffrey Scherer.
Old Owl flies through the night, hearing various sounds and discovering the animals who make them, then heading off to sleep at daybreak. There's not much story, but simple rhymes provide a handy introduction to some nocturnal animals' behaviors ("'Who tipped trash over there?'" / 'I did,' Raccoon said. / 'There's plenty to share'"). Bold-hued cartoon illustrations accompany the text.
