The Sad Owl That Didn't Give a Hoot: A “Story” Coloring Book

By Ardie Stuart Brown

For many generations, a group of owls lived together in a wood filled with towering trees. As the owls grew, so did the treesand so did their happy owl community. The nights were filled with the sound of hoots and flapping wings as owls visited each others trees, family to family. All was well in the forest until, one day, things changed.

One morning, the owls wake to find a bunch of strange equipment in their forest. The sound of hoots is replaced by the loud sound of hammers and saws. Then, the worst thing possible happens: a tree is cut down! A family of owls flees their home and hoots their goodbyes, but they are only the first of many to be forced to leave.

The owl forest has been chosen as the site of a new housing development. Before houses are built, the trees must go. Will the owls be forced to leave the place theyve called home for generations? If they do leave, where will they go? Sometimes, humans dont give any thought to these questions, but its about time we did!
