Does anyone else get a lump in their throat (and at one reading tears in their eyes) when they get to the page 'AND SHE CAME'? It gets me every time.

My boys love this, I think it is a lovely story.

I know what you mean about getting a bit teary-eyed too

Ah I love Owl Babies!!!! Gives me a warm feeling and teary eyes everytime I read it. DS1 loves it, always asks for it, hopefully DS2 will grow to love it too.
