Eva's Treetop Festival

By: Rebecca Elliott

Owl Diaries is a cute early chapter book. The book is written with pictures and small chunks of text on each page. Eva Wingdale is the main character who writes about the events in her life. In book #1 she wants to plan a festival because she is bored. She does not like to ask for help from others, but soon realizes that she needs others in order to create her vision for the festival. With the help of others the festival is a success. The book is a great introduction into personal journal writing. Students could create their own diary as an extension to reading this series.
