Going owling is an exercise in patience and endurance, but the payoff can be enormous. The young child in this book learns these lessons but is rewarded by seeing a big, beautiful owl closeup and then watching it fly off into the forest.
Meet San Lee, a (sort of) innocent teenager, who moves against his will to a new town. Things get interesting when he (sort of) invents a new past for himself, which makes him incredibly popular.
