Title: Owls in the Family
Author: Farley Mowat
Rating: ★★★★★
Ages: 6 - 12
When Billy rescues two young orphaned great horned owls and takes them home, he has no idea what he's in for. Before long, his new friends, Wol and Weeps, have turned his family and the town they live in upside down. The problem is that Wol doesn't realize that he's an owl. After all, he stands on two legs and can climb trees, just like the other kids. He'll eat anything that's served at the dinner table (except, of course, parsnips). He loves playing practical jokes on Mutt, the family dog. And wherever Wol goes, mayhem is sure to follow, whether it's a stampede at the local pet parade or a traumatized teacher.
