Merry, a small owl with dreams of adventure, finds herself far from home when she wakes up in a bustling city. As she navigates the urban jungle, Merry must rely on her wits and courage to find her way back to the forest. Will this unexpected journey lead her to discover the true magic of Christmas and the bond between nature and city life? Join Merry on a heartwarming quest that blends whimsy with the spirit of the season, inspired by a real-life tale of a tiny owl's adventure.

From the publisher

A heartwarming and whimsical story about the connection between humans and nature, and the magic of Christmas.
