MANCHESTER â A mutual love of owls, a tiny northern saw-whetâs stowaway trip to New York City and, of course, a happy ending have inspired a new childrenâs book now available through Northshire Bookstore.
âThe Owl That Saved The Christmas Tree Forest,â by Dianne Buckley Sunda and Debbi Wraga, was, as they say, âinspired by a true story.â
That being the true tale of the tiny owl that somehow got wrapped inside a 75-foot Norway spruce harvested last month in Oneonta, N.Y., and took a 170-mile truck ride to Manhattan, where the tree was to be the annual Rockefeller Center Christmas tree.
