Description

Little Owl and Little Rabbit live in the same oak tree, but they've never met. While Little Rabbit hops through the forest by day, Little Owl soars over it by night.

When they discover they are neighbours, the pair are desperate to meet. But how can they, when Little Owl is waking up just as Little Rabbit is going to sleep?

Then one night, a big, bright full moon appears. Will Little Owl and Little Rabbit finally get to play together?

A sweet, warm-hearted story of friendship set in the natural world, with words by much-loved Polish author Przemyslaw Wechterowicz and beautiful illustrations from the award-winning illustrator Emilia Dziubak, co-creator of USBBY Outstanding International Book The House of Lost and Found. This charming tale is a perfect book for bedtime.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
