Bringing home a new pet is always exciting, but adding two massive owls to the family takes the chaos to an entirely new level. Billy already has a wildly unpredictable menagerie of animals, including gophers, crows, and a highly intelligent dog named Mutt. When he rescues Wol and Weeps, two orphaned great horned owls, his quiet Saskatchewan neighborhood will never be the same. The trouble is, Wol does not seem to realize he is actually a bird. He prefers walking on two legs, terrorizing the local postman, and eating absolutely anything from the dinner table except parsnips. Meanwhile, Weeps is terribly afraid of almost everything and refuses to fly. From stampeding the local pet parade to bringing highly inappropriate gifts into the house, these two feathered troublemakers turn every single day into a hilarious disaster. This incredibly funny and heartwarming story proves that the best friendships often come with a lot of feathers and a huge mess.
