"I want my mommy!" Three baby owls awake one night to find their mother gone, and they can’t help but wonder where she is. What is she doing? When will she be back? What scary things move all around them? Stunning illustrations from striking perspectives capture the anxious little owls as they worry. Not surprisingly, joyous flapping and dancing and bouncing greet the mother’s return, lending a celebratory tone to the ending of this comforting tale. Never has the plight of young ones who miss their mother been so simply told or so beautifully rendered.

本书叙述了三只小猫头鹰——秀秀、皮皮和比比在黑夜中等妈妈回家的温馨故事。作者将猫头鹰拟人化，并且利用浅白易懂的文句，透露出孩子在等待妈妈回家时的彷徨与忧心。
