Summary

Un hermoso álbum ilustrado, ganador de la Medalla Caldecott 1988
 
Una noche de invierno, una niña y su padre van en busca de un búho. Los árboles se quedan quietos como estatuas y el mundo está en silencio como un sueño. Whoo-whoo-whoo, llama el padre al misterioso pájaro nocturno.

 
Pero no hay respuesta.
 
Padre e hija caminan sin palabras, porque cuando buscas búhos, no necesitas palabras. No necesitas nada más que esperanza. A veces no hay un búho, pero a veces sí.
 
La reconocida autora Jane Yolen recrea en Luna de búho una historia suave y poética, que describe con cariño el vínculo especial de una niña pequeña y su padre, así como la estrecha relación de la humanidad con la naturaleza. Maravillosamente ilustrado con las suaves y exquisitas acuarelas de John Schoenherr, este libro es un tesoro verbal y visual, perfecto para leer y compartir en familia antes de dormir.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A beloved picture book, winner of the 1988 Caldecott Medal

Late one winter night a little girl and her father go owling. The trees stand still as statues and the world is silent as a dream. Whoo-whoo-whoo, the father calls to the mysterious nighttime bird.

But there is no answer.

Wordlessly the two companions walk along, for when you go owling you don't need words. You don't need anything but hope. Sometimes there isn't an owl, but sometimes there is.
Distinguished author Jane Yolen has created a gentle, poetic story that lovingly depicts the special companionship of a young child and her father as well as humankind's close relationship to the natural world. Wonderfully complemented by John Schoenherr's soft, exquisite watercolor illustrations, this is a verbal and visual treasure, perfect for reading around and sharing at bedtime.
