In the first book of the Niki Owl series, our faithful explorer takes a major leap of faith by journeying from his home forest in Spain to find adventure in Canada. Niki finds far more than he ever imagined as he explores a new culture and environment, and encounters many of the typical situations we often find ourselves in as the result of change. He approaches them with as much positive thinking as he can, sharing what he already knows and learning much more from the new friends he makes along the way. He knows that we are all students, and we are all teachers. Guided by his "inner owl," Niki begins to unravel some of the mysteries of life, and takes us back to simplicity so we can approach life in new ways.
