About this book
Un hermoso álbum ilustrado, ganador de la Medalla Caldecott 1988 Una noche de invierno, una niña y su padre van en busca de un búho. Los árboles se quedan quietos como estatuas y el mundo está en silencio como un sueño. Whoo-whoo-whoo, llama el padre al misterioso pájaro nocturno. Pero no hay respuesta.
