Fly, Chick, Fly!

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Tony Ross. A reluctant baby owl watches her siblings fly off but won't try herself, too aware of the dangers that await her. Finally, after much exhortation from her parents ("You belong in the sky!... Fly, little chick, just try!"), she dares to leave the nest. Textured pastel illustrations warmly portray the owlet's world as well as her imagined fears and ultimate joys.
