Owl is sure she will win the first winter games. She hasn’t trained, but she knows she's always the best at everything she does. But Owl is in for a surprise when things don't go her way. Thankfully, her friends are there to teach her the difference between being arrogant and being confident.
The big moment is here—the start of the first winter games! Most of the forest animals have trained all year, honing their skills to compete in a variety of events. Owl hasn’t trained at all. But Owl isn’t worried! She's always the best at everything without having to train or practice. Her natural talent and confidence are enough—or so she thinks. Best-selling author/illustrator Katy Hudson brilliantly showcases themes of self-awareness, friendship, and the difference between being confident and being arrogant in this entertaining picture book.
