Description Concering Books Owls in the Family

Farley Mowat's funniest book tells the adventures of Wol and Weeps, two owls from Saskatchewan who shape up a whole neighbourhood, turn a house topsy-turvy, and outsmart Mutt, the dog hero of The Dog Who Wouldn't Be. Wol brings dead skunks to the family dinner table and terrorizes the minister, the postman, and the French teacher. Weeps is a comical bird, afraid of everything except Mutt, and he never does learn how to fly. Here is the heartwarming story of how a boy named Billy finds Wol and Weeps and unwittingly adds two new members to the family.

Write-Up Containing Books Owls in the Family
Such a perfectly lovely book, impossible not to grin reading about the antics of Wol and Weeps! It makes me wish I'd grown up on the prairie alongside Billy and his friends too.

I remembered loving this book from when I was a kid! My sister's favorite animals were owls, so we were in awe of Farley's family who had two pet owls. After looking around for this book in the library, I finally ordered it off Amazon. It was so worth it! It was a quick read of 3 sittings and all three of my kids loved it and we all laughed and laughed. I've liked most of Farley Mowatt's books, but I've never read his most famous book: Never Cry Wolf. Someday I'll get to that.

This little book is a hoot.

I just love this book. It goes back in a time when boys could roam and explore. This boy captures two owls and they live at home with him! It is quite hilarious! I also love that it is a true story

Owls in the Family is a funny and warm-hearted memoir perfect for anyone who loves animal stories! Wol and Weeps are adorable and hilarious to read about, as they bumble about causing trouble, either on accident or quite deliberately. The owls and their personalities are certainly the highlight of the story, but Mowat's descriptions of their surprising strength and size are humbling reminders that they are wild animals designed to hunt and kill. This little book was a lot of fun to reread, and

Toronto Public Library Reading Challenge 2020: A book you found helpful AND A book that made you laugh.This book felt like the perfect antidote to everything that's happening right now. A story set out on the Saskatchewan praries about the shenanigans that two great horned owls get into, what could be more perfect than that? Weeps and Wol (the owls), who're clearly the stars of this novel, helped me forget reality for just a little while and gave me something to chuckle at. And for someone who's

My children and I LOVED this book! Very funny and we learned a lot about owls and various other animals. Highly recommend it! :)
