This is a fun and educational story about Screech, an eastern screech owl on the hunt for a home for his future family. Join Screech on his adventures as he overcomes the destruction of his habitat -- with a little help from his human friends. 

As human populations grow worldwide, more and more wildlife habitats are being destroyed year after year, and few people are aware of the devastation this can cause to bird and animal populations. In this long-form picture book, readers will learn about habitat destruction and wildlife conservation from a bird’s perspective.

Screech is a screech owl, and he lives in a nesting box in the backyard of a human family. 


Moving and informative, Screech: His Hunt for a Home is a fantastic text for introducing more advanced readers to the principles of wildlife conservation.
