Synopsis On a cold winter's night a young girl and her father walk through the woods hoping to see a Great Horned Owl. The girl knows she must be quiet and patient if she hopes to see an owl, and that there's even a chance that no matter how quiet she is or how long she waits, she and her father might not see any owls at all. Then, after a long, cold search, the girl's patience is rewarded. Illustrated with watercolor paintings. Winner of the 1988 Caldecott Medal., On a winter's night under a full moon, a father and daughter trek into the woods to see the Great Horned Owl.
