OWLS. By Marianne Taylor. Comstock Publishing Associates, Ithaca, New York, USA. 2012: 224 pages. ISBN: 978-0-8014-5181-2. $35.00 (hardcover).-Owls have intrigued humans throughout our history; we have placed their images on ancient coins and other artwork. Owls have been woven into our literary history, and even recently occupy prominent positions in the Harry Potter and Guardians of Ga'Hoole book series. Why are we fascinated with owls? Are the myths about owls true? This book provides the answers to these questions, and more. We reviewed this book as a team, a 15-year-old boy and his father, to provide contrasting perspectives on the book.
