Poppy submitted by Ying Zh on July 1, 2011, 10:01am I think this book is very charming how Poppy slays the great owl for her revenge for Ragweed. I think the author made a good choice choosing a porcupine for a friend; for no one would have guessed that she as a mouse would befriend such a feared and unknown creature.

Cute, with a great lesson submitted by jtmaxwell on August 23, 2011, 6:20am Through the use of woodland animals, Avi teaches readers to think for themselves, problem solve, and to be brave, even when no one thinks you can accomplish something! A great, quick read.

Awesome submitted by tomiwa on June 16, 2013, 1:18pm The book is really good, and I think positive thoughts about it, but being a amateur ornithologist (someone who studies birds) I find it sad that Mr. Ocax had to be the antagonist in the story. Other than that, it was a really good book.

great book! submitted by rgarciat on June 30, 2018, 1:49pm this book really shows emotional feelings.It shows friendship.it has great lessons. Mr.Ocax has feared a statue of an owl. Ereth, the porcupine can be in grave danger if she doesn't stop eating salt. Poppy and Ereth are friends.
