Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Un hermoso álbum ilustrado, ganador de la Medalla Caldecott 1988

Una noche de invierno, una niña y su padre van en busca de un búho. Los árboles se quedan quietos como estatuas y el mundo está en silencio como un sueño. Whoo-whoo-whoo, llama el padre al misterioso pájaro nocturno.

Pero no hay respuesta.

Padre e hija caminan sin palabras, porque cuando buscas búhos, no necesitas palabras. No necesitas nada más que esperanza. A veces no hay un búho, pero a veces sí.

La reconocida autora Jane Yolen recrea en Luna de búho una historia suave y poética, que describe con cariño el vínculo especial de una niña pequeña y su padre, así como la estrecha relación de la humanidad con la naturaleza. Maravillosamente ilustrado con las suaves y exquisitas acuarelas de John Schoenherr, este libro es un tesoro verbal y visual, perfecto para leer y compartir en familia antes de dormir.
