I loved the entire Gaurdians of Ga'hoole series and was sad when it ended. This collection of stories about different gaurdians is great. You get wonderful background on characters that you only knew a little about in the series. Plus it gives you a glimpse of Outlissa's life now. I would defintely recommend this to fans of the series.

Reading a book by Kathryn Lasky has long been on my list of things to do. But because she mainly writes series and some of them are long, I had not started yet because I did not want to get sucked in. When this collection of short stories became available I pounced at the opportunity. I was not disappointed. This collection of stories shows a breadth and depth of life in the Owl world created by Lasky. The stories in this collection are:

The Snowy Sisters
Fritha's Painted Past
Uglamore Redeemed
Brothers Brave and Blustery
A Secret in Braithe's Gizzard
Cleve's Sorrow

With a greeting from Soren, the Monarch of the great tree of Ga'Hoole, and an afterwards by Otulissa, the historian of the great tree, this collection will entertain, enlighten and challenge readers. I think what I loved best about this collection is that even though these are stories about Owl society, each has a lesson we can learn from, some we will draw courage from, some we will be challenged by, and some will just entertain. But each of these stories has lessons that can be transposed to our own lives and our development into learning to be better at being. And maybe that is the secret to the popularity of these books and the movie; they challenge the reader to think, and if the reader is open, to being changed for the better. The stories in this collection are so well written, I have moved reading the whole Gardians of Ga'Hoole series and the Wolves of the Beyond series towards the top of my to read pile. Both series are set in the same world, and if they are as good as this collection of short stories, they will be great reads. I for one will be return to the Northern and Southern kingdoms in these stories again soon.

I have followed this series from book one and it is a wonderful story. I read it so I could know what my daughter was reading and became so caught up in the story of "The Band" I couldn't wait for each new book. I am so sad it has concluded.

this book is the best! i read them all ever the lost tales.it is the best series ever! it is interesting and you can`t stop reading it.

i love this series its amazing with this book you get more info about the owls of the great gahoole tree i love it

I really wish that Kathryn Lasky would write more about the series. Maybe we could get a glimpse of Blythe's later life or if Otulissa really became Cleve of Firthmore's wife.

Received on time, great product as described.
In original wrapping, Perfect!

This book was okay. The first story was not at all interesting. Anne Frank Diary of a Young Girl is way beter.
