In the middle of a wood there is a chick who will not fly. "Not I!" she cries to Mother Owl and Father Owl. She flaps, she flips, she flops and hops back into the nest. Time passes and seasons change, but still she refuses to fly. Will she ever learn to let go and soar up into the open sky?

"I want my mummy!" When their Owl Mother goes off hunting one night, the three baby owls sit and think (owls think a lot) as they wait for her return. Children will love snuggling up to watch the animated version of this charming tale from the acclaimed King Rollo Films – accompanied by specially composed music and narrated by Emilia Fox – and following all the action in the classic picture book.
