Olive Owlsly & The Moon-Egg Mystery: A bedtime desert tale about wonder, starry skies, and the magic of imagination

Why does the moon look so round? So full? So... egg-like?

Olive Owlsly is a curious, dreamy little owl with big thoughts and even bigger questions, especially about the moon.

One windy night in California's Anza-Borrego Desert, Olive stares up at the glowing sky and imagines something incredible. The moon isn't just bright - it's shaped like an egg. And maybe it's about to hatch.

With her Emergency Adventure Kit (string, goggles, and a single cracker) close at hand, Olive learns that imagination, courage, and a little quiet wonder can turn even the stillest night into something magical.

Set beneath desert skies, Olive Owlsly & The Moon-Egg Mystery is a gentle bedtime story that supports social-emotional learning through curiosity, creative thinking, and emotional self-trust.

Perfect for:

  • Kids ages 4-8
  • Dreamy readers who love animals, stars, and big "what ifs"
  • Parents and educators looking for quiet stories that explore big feelings
  • Families wanting a cozy, funny, and heartwarming bedtime read

"She dreamed of wings that never tired, and dragons that sang lullabies."

About the Author

Heather Jablow is a writer, brand strategist, and lifelong daydreamer who splits her time between San Diego and Borrego Springs in California, where two very real barn owls keep watch over the night. Inspired by the desert skies, wind-whipped ocotillos, and the teachers who answer curious questions with a warm smile, she created Olive Owlsly to remind readers that imagination is its own kind of wisdom. When she's not writing, Heather enjoys hiking in the Anza-Borrego State Park, looking for scorpions, and helping brands find their voice. She sometimes listens for owl hoots that sound suspiciously like encouragement.
