ReS-Gr 2-An earnest story about two owls who play together every day, but who, readers are told, are "too shy to say that they loved each other." One day, when Hoot is blown away by a gust of wind and gets lost, the friends are both sad because they never told the other how much they enjoyed playing together. Soon, however, with the encouragement of Wise Owl and a growing amount of courage, Holler searches for Hoot. When his shy, small voice does not do the job, he musters the courage to shout, "Hoo-oot! I love you-hoo!" Hoot hears and responds. Reunited, they resolve never to be too shy to share their feelings. Soft, rounded animal figures inhabit this forest of equally round, clean trees perched atop a smooth, green hill, overlooked by a prominent, round moon. However, the story's sentiments are forced, and neither of the large-eyed characters is particularly expressive. Why is it so important that they say how they feel to one another? Shouldn't their actions speak for themselves? Stick with duos such as George and Martha, Frog and Toad, or Toot and Puddle whose books weave humor and charm into their plots, and in which the characters' personalities lead them into and out of predicaments that are both funny and familiar to children.

Hoot and Holler are two owl best friends who love to play games, but are never abe to say they love one another. When Hoot is lost in the woods, Holler worries he'll never have a chance to express his affection. Rimantas Rolia's drawings are unique and whimsical. |
