The Owl Radio

Why do owls fly around at night, all night? They read books. That you have never seen them reading? No surprise, you are sleeping sound at night. Exactly what owls need. They fly through the chimney into your house, into your room, read up all the books they can find and then, before the sun rises up, they fly back into the forest. 
And there, during the day, the owls hide in their small houses inside tree trunks and tell all the stories they read to the small rabbits, to the small eagles, to small wolves and puppy foxes, to anyone, who listens to the owl radio. 
It’s only some scientists who believe owls sleep during the day, but I know that owls never sleep - they are vivid book readers. They remember all the stories they have ever read - that is why they have such big round heads. And from the reading they get big round eyes that can see through the night. 
So next time you are in the forest, look for an owl radio - maybe you will hear a story you have never heard of and can tell it to someone who will enjoy it.
Good morning, my loved ones.
