I recommend this book as an excellent story for kids or adults who appreciate good picture books. The box says “Squires” and “Kingdom Wide Delivery!” and “Fire-Roasted” with drawings of mini dragons, which is particularly amusing as Owl is feeding the fire-roasted pizza to a fire-breathing dragon. The illustrations of Owl trying to hold the sword and shield are hilarious and the little guy is really cute in his armor. What should the dragon eat? Why, pizza, of course! From then on, no more Knights disappear and Owl makes many (dragon) friends. One night, he hears a strange sound-it’s a dragon coming to eat him! Owl cleverly convinces the dragon that he, Owl, a creature of feathers and fluff, isn’t good enough for a mighty dragon. He can’t wield a sword or carry a shield, but he is an excellent night Knight guard and patrols the castle bravely. Owl studies hard and graduates with honor (as all knights do). Owl applies to Knight School and, to the surprise of his parents, is accepted. Knights are disappearing at an alarming rate and replacements are needed. Owl has always dreamed of being a knight and one day, he gets his chance. All the illustrations are well done and the Knight Owl is just too damn cute.

Then one night, while on Knight night watch, he hears a “whoosh”. But Owl is determined and applies to Knight School, where he works hard and makes his dream come true.
