Eye of the Owl is a fantasy fiction that takes place in the small town of Prickly Pears located at the edge of a mystical oasis along the San Andreas Fault, where the paranormal and social misfits were not unusual. The protagonist—Darla Fleaurant, a staff writer for a newspaper in Des Moines, Iowa—had big dreams and career goals in the world of journalism. To achieve her dream, she played everything by the rules and according to social expectations. Her entire life was planned out before her until her husband, who was her childhood sweetheart, divorced her to marry her closest lifelong friend. Devasted by pain and shame, she left her hometown and traveled to California. By happenstance, she took the wrong off-ramp and ended up in the town of Prickly Pears where she met Emma Blackmer, owner of Emma and Luke’s Prickly Pear Café and RV Park. It was through Emma’s role modeling and teachings that Darla broke down social barriers and found her true self and how she fit into the greater scheme of society.

Book Description
Children will see the natural world around them with brand new eyes, as they learn to follow its signs, hear its language, and understand its secrets. With this unique and compelling book written by expert environmental educator Devin Franklin, kids ages 8 to 13 will build their own relationship with nature through finding a “Sit Spot” — an outdoor space in the backyard, in a field or in the woods, in a vacant lot or a city park — where they can stop, observe, and become familiar with the flora and fauna that live there. From the Six Arts of Tracking (Who, What, Where, When, Why, and How) and making a habitat map to walking in smooth silence like a fox and learning the basics of bird language, 15 exploration exercises lead young readers on a fascinating journey of discovery as they watch, listen, map, interpret, and write about the sounds, sights, scents, and patterns they encounter. With journaling prompts, map-making activities, and observational tracking pages throughout, Put on Your Owl Eyes is an interactive and thought-provoking guidebook.
