Little Hoot -- It's not fair! All Little Owl wants is to go to bed at a reasonable hour, like his friends do. But no . . . Mama and Papa say little owls have to stay up late and play. So Little Owl spends all night jumping on his bed, playing on the jungle gym, and doing tricks on his skateboard—but he's hooting mad about it ! Children who have a hard time going to bed will love this fun twist on the universal dilemma.


Amy Krouse Rosenthal is a Chicago-based writer. She is the author of Little Pea, Cookies, and The OK Book.

Jen Corace graduated from Rhode Island School of Design with a BFA in Illustration. A New Jersey native, she now lives in Seattle.

The Charming Little Hoot

This is the perfect little bedtime story. I heart Little Hoot.

The New York Times0000-00-00
“Corace's illustrations are more daring, throwing a wider color spectrum into the mix and showing a slight anime influence. The book feels familiar right away without losing its sense of surprise--such a pleasure to read that even 'they owl lived happily ever after' can be forgiven. More!”

Little Hoot

The Wall Street Journal0000-00-00
“…Amy Krouse Rosenthal neatly appeal[s] to the sensibilities both of bedtime rebels and of their law-giving parents.”

Little Hoot

School Library Journal2008-04-01

Little Hoot

The Bulletin Of The Center For Children's Books2008-03-01
