Chapter 2:
Meeting the Wise Old Owl
He followed the sound and soon found himself near a large tree.
Sitting on a branch was an old owl, who had been watching him
the whole time. "Hello, little one," the owl said in a wise voice.
"What brings you to my forest?"
Treetoad told the owl about his experience. He got separated
from his father and felt lost and scared. The owl listened and then
said, "I may be able to help you. But first, you must calm down
and listen to my advice. The forest can be scary. But, if you stay
alert and use your senses, you will find your way home."

The owl replied, "Remember what I told you about using your
instincts and staying calm? You are doing well, but you must not
give up hope. You will find your way back home if you keep
moving forward."

help guide him through the forest. Treetoad was grateful for the
owl's company. Together, they continued their journey.
