The magical and reassuring tale about baby barn owl Plop is a beloved children’s classic!

Plop, the baby owl, is like every barn owl there ever was, except for one thing – he is afraid of the dark!

But the dark is brimming with excitement and magic. As Plop ventures into the night, he meets a boy who shows him fireworks, a black cat who takes him exploring, a girl who tells him about Father Christmas, among other surprising discoveries . . .

Filled with gentle humour and warm and soothing illustrations, The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark has been enjoyed for decades by parents and children who want to snuggle down with a good read!

Perfect for kids aged 2+.
