A laugh out loud tale of a lovably clueless dog and his owner

This fantasy story is about two monkeys, who look smart in their new clothes. Mojo has new shoes, and Weeza has a new hat ... until it flies away in the wind. In their humorous search, Mojo and Weeza mistake a pan, a nest and a turtle for Weeza's hat, before retrieving it from a muddy pond.

Jeder weiß, der Kauz hat Grips. Viele Kauze kennen Tricks. Doch nur ich, zur Unterscheidung, bin ein Meister der Verkleidung. Superkauz ist kein gewöhnlicher Kauz: Kometengleich saust er durch die kalte, schwarze Nacht, er hat Grips, und vor allem kann er sich – darauf ist er stolz – supergut verkleiden. So ist keine Beute vor ihm sicher! Erspäht er ein leckeres Kaninchen, verkleidet er sich zum Beispiel als Karotte. Klappt nicht, macht ihm aber gar nichts! Denn Superkauz hat schon ein neues Opfer im Visier: eine köstliche Taube. Trotz raffinierter Verkleidung (als, nun ja, Vogeltränke) funktioniert es wieder nicht. Superkauz ist vielleicht doch nicht so gefährlich wie er glaubt … Irgendwann kriegt er trotzdem etwas besonders Feines zu fassen – kein Tier zum Glück, so viel sei verraten. Ein witzig erzähltes, von Jean Jullien ebenso humorvoll illustriertes und außergewöhnlich gestaltetes Buch, das kleine – und auch größere – Leser entzückt.

In this cozy bedtime story, follow a child and his grandma through a winter landscape to explore how the Earth goes to sleep for winter. Spot the sleeping animals as the tale unfolds, then learn about their hibernation habits from the information pages at the end. Co-authors Sean Taylor (picture book author) and Alex Morss (ecologist, journalist, and educator) offer a gentle introduction to the concept of hibernation. In the frosty, quiet forest, the snow blankets the ground and the trees have shed their leaves. Where have all the animals gone? Are they asleep too? In each cutaway scene, see what the child cannot—that underground below his feet are dens with sleeping creatures, and within the hollow trunks of trees, animals are nesting. After the story, annotated illustrations explain the hibernation facts for each animal and what they will do when they wake up for spring. Cozy up as you expand you and your child's knowledge of the natural world.
