KATHRYN LASKY has long had a fascination with owls. Several years ago she began doing extensive research about these birds and their behaviors—what they ate, how they flew, how they built or found their nests. She thought that she would someday write a nonfiction book about owls, illustrated with photographs by her husband, Christopher Knight. She realized, though, that this would indeed be difficult since owls are nocturnal creatures, shy and hard to find. So she decided to write a fantasy about a world of owls. But even though it was an imaginary world in which owls could speak, think, and dream, she wanted to include as much of their natural history as she could.
Kathryn Lasky has written many books, both fiction and nonfiction. She has collaborated with her husband on nonfiction books such as Sugaring Time, for which she won a Newbery Honor; The Most Beautiful Roof in the World; and most recently, Interrupted Journey: Saving Endangered Sea Tur- tles. Among her fiction books are The Night]ourney, a win- ner of the National Jewish Book Award; Beyond the Burning Time, an ALA Best Book for Young Adults; True North: A Journe2 to the New World; Dreams in the Golden Country; and Porkenstein. She has written the volume entitled The]ournal of Augustus Pelletier: The Lewis and Clark Expedition, 18o4 for the My Name Is America series and several books for The Royal Diary series, including Elizabeth I" Red Rose of the House of Tudor, England 1544 and Jahanara, Princess of Princesses,India 1627. She has also received the Boston Globe Horn Book Award as well as the Washington Post Children's Book Guild Award for her contribution to nonfiction.
Lasky and her husband live in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
内容简介
Deep in the Forest of Tyto the adventure takes wing! Soren is born in a forest kingdom where Barn Owls have lived in peace for eons. But evil now lurks in the owl world, an evil that will shatter Tyto's peace and change Soren's life forever. In the first four books of this popular series Soren and his band make their way to the Great Ga'Hoole Tree where they will join with like-minded owls - honest, brave, wise and true - to boldly face danger and be tested in ways they never imagined.
