(Eloquent Books, April 1, 2009)
Life isn't much fun when you're a little owl getting teased and picked on by your older siblings. Wouldn't it be wonderful to have a best friend to play with all the time, no matter what time of day it was? Well, what if your best friend was a mynah bird who relished the warm sunshine and you were an owl who loved flying across the moonlit skies? Read about an unlikely pair of feathered friends trying their best to come up with wacky ideas and solutions to give them more time to play with each other - day OR night! Author Bio: Jasper Ulbrich was in grade 5 at the time he wrote and illustrated, The Little Owl. Due to a rollerblading accident, his right arm was in a full cast, so Jasper learned to use his left hand to draw his illustrations. Although he has dyslexia Jasper is very imaginative and created this story for his kindergarten buddy as a class assignment. He lives in Sydney, Australia and enjoys writing and drawing. He has an older brother and a younger sister who is assisting him with the creation of the next installment in his Owl series. The Little Owl is Jasper's first published book.
