Operation Owl: Volume 4 - Paperback
by Julie Sykes (Author)
From the bestselling author of The Unicorn Academy!
The fourth story in an illustrated magical adventure series brimming with drama and an environmental theme. The Keepers are a secretive tribe of little people who live in the middle of Whispering Woods, caring for the countryside and rewilding it when humans (or Ruffins as they know them) are careless with it. On their very first venture into the Big Outside as fully trained Keepers, Cora and Jax come across a barn owl caught in a tree by a discarded fishing line. Determined to help free it, Jax climbs onto the owl's back to loosen the line but the owl takes to the air - with Jax on board. Will Cora ever see him again? This breathtakingly exciting story is a superb addition to this magical series, perfect for 6-8-year-olds, combining animal rescue, nature conservation and exciting adventure.As a child, Julie Sykes was always telling tales. Not the 'she ate all the cake not me' kind but wildly exaggerated tales of everyday events. Julie still loves telling stories and is now the bestselling author of more than 100 books for children of all ages and is published around the world. She has recently moved to Cornwall with her family and a white wolf - cunningly disguised as a dog. When she's not writing she likes eating cake, reading and walking, often at the same time.
