A heart-warming classic full of animal antics by Jill Tomlinson.

Plop, the Baby Barn Owl, is like every Barn Owl there ever was, except for one thing – he is afraid of the dark. Filled with gentle humor and comfort, Jill Tomlinson’s animal stories have been enjoyed by children who want to snuggle down with a good read for decades. This edition of The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark is beautifully illustrated by Paul Howard. 

 I would recommend this book: The students will really enjoy the book. It has a beautiful, inspiring moral. The book will help them to infer and interpret. By introducing children to new ideas and ways of thinking about the world, fiction has powerful potential as a creativity booster. Fiction makes us more empathetic. Builds student’s vocabulary. Can also help socialize children by teaching them important lessons about life and the way that our society and communities work.
