Description In Pursuance Of Books Owly, Vol. 1: The Way Home & The Bittersweet Summer (Owly #1)

This is a marvelous series of books for kids. Not just lovely and sweet, but pretty unique in my experience.

They're comics, but they don't have any verbal element. (Well, very rare verbal elements) The animals think and speak in pictures, so kids can read these books to themselves.

Reading them with your kids is fun too, because you can say, "What do you think is happening here?" Not only is hearing their interpretation of events lovely, but it make the reading a truly collaborative experience.

Highly recommended. Pure delight.

Comment On Out Of Books Owly, Vol. 1: The Way Home & The Bittersweet Summer (Owly #1)

Wholesome. A cute story that illustrates you cant be afraid to let your friends leave and the person you may never expect could be your truest friend. The audience felt very young (like preschool - early elementary), but some older readers might still enjoy it.

This is an 'all ages comic book' that is shocking in it's simplicity and lack of words. The animals make noises and occasionally there are words shown from a book one of the animals is reading, but thats about it. Conversations are conveyed through bubbles containing pictures. Emotions are expressed by way of pictures. I found it pretty incredible that so much could be conveyed without words, with only some fairly simplistic depictions.This book is composed of two novellas, each in comic book

This book was recommended to me by one of my Goodread friends who also likes graphic novels. It was a very cute book with adorable drawings that told a great story despite having very few words. This is something young kids and adults alike will enjoy.The book tells two stories. The first is The Way Home in which Owly saves a worm from drowning and helps the worm to find his family. The second is The Bittersweet Summer where Owly befriends some hummingbirds and struggles with how to take care of

I really like how sweet this series is. The characters are friendly, supportive, and express emotions without shame. There are some very important lessons in teamwork and togetherness, done in such a way which doesn't feel like a lesson. It's very *real* how the story is about these empathizing characters helping other characters, and getting to know and appreciate each other through their challenges and triumphs.The lack of dialogue common to graphic novels is actually a relief for me. In not

In my exploration of graphic novels, I discovered this fun story of friendship with fun owl artwork. While this is virtually all pictures, and I wish there had been more text, this might be a good springboard to help boost students' narrative writing. I could really see how you could build one's thoughts and writing around portions of the illustrations. Could be a good teaching tool.

Its difficult to know exactly what to say about Owly. The book is slight, certainly. One can breeze through the entire volume in under fifteen minutes. That there are nearly no words means that readers will spend all their time reading pictures instead of divvying time between text and illustration. The stories are simple (even perhaps simplistic) and the characters are all dressed in heart-on-sleeve fashion. The art, too, is low on detail and finish, using broad brushstrokes and few lines to
