With a menagerie that includes crows, magpies, and gophers, can he restore order before the town is turned completely upside down?

From the publisher
Every child needs to have a pet. No one could argue with that. But what happens when your pet is an owl, and your owl is terrorizing the neighbourhood? In Farley Mowat’s exciting children’s story, a young boy’s pet menagerie–which includes crows, magpies, gophers and a dog–grows out of control with the addition of two cantankerous pet owls. The story of how Wol and Weeps turn the whole town upside down s warm, funny, and bursting with adventure and suspense.
