The third book in the Groundhog and Friends series from Charlesbridge is now available! Owl is hosting a Fall Feast, and Platypus—his favorite didgeridoo musician—is joining! But what do you serve someone who is mammal, bird, and reptile?

Checking in with his friends offers no good insight. In fact, he learns that Groundhog is lactose intolerant, Hare has an allergy to carrots, Sparrow is a vegetarian, and Tortoise prefers to eat the flower centerpiece! Will Owl be able to see past his preconceptions and prepare a delicious feast for all his friends, whatever species they may be? 

A funny and relatable seasonal picture book for parents looking to teach 3-7-year-old kids about accepting differences, looking beyond stereotypes, and friendship.

Owl makes all kinds of incorrect assumptions about his friends. Share "Owl's Fall Feast Fiasco" with your kids and ask them if anyone has ever made any assumptions about them that were way off. For example, because my son is tall, many people ask him if he likes playing basketball, but really my son prefers rock wall climbing and disc golf. And my daughter will choose a sword over a tiara any day! Print off the sheets below for a free writing activity and a great discussion starter!


An Owl Song and Fingerplay!

I'm a wide-eyed owl

With a beak for a nose

Feathers on my body

And talons for toes

I live high in a tree

And if I see you

I flap my wings and say,

"Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!"
