Watch out! Make way!
I am SUPER OWL.
I'm hungry.
And here I come!

Watch out, because there he is, the most dangerous creature of the night: Super Owl!

Super Owl is no ordinary owl - not at all - he can disguise himself like no other! And he uses that talent to get food. He disguises himself as a carrot to lure a rabbit, as a sheep to trick a lamb and as a birdbath to trick a pigeon. But... his evil plans fail time and time again. Fortunately, Super Owl eventually manages to conquer his ultimate prey.

A delightful picture book that will make both children and adults laugh out loud.
