By the light of the stars, by the light of the moon, I will always return.
Orris the rat and Timble the owl are friends. Each night, Timble comes to the barn to visit Orris and listen to his stories. But Timble is growing up, and when he doesn't appear one day, Orris wonders if perhaps Timble has forgotten him. Is their friendship over— or does Timble have a story of his own to share?

Reviews
Orris and Timble: Lost and Found
Reviewed by Mary Eisenhart
It's a celebration of storytelling, friendship, not letting others tell you who you can be friends with, and the fact that sometimes your loved ones are doing their best, but fall short anyway, and empathy and understanding can make your bond stronger.
Orris and Timble: Lost and Found
Sensitive and quietly enthralling.
Orris and Timble: Lost and Found
Reviewed by Sherry Early
If that first book was “about friendship and adventure and choices and risk taking”, this second book is a twist on the story of the Prodigal Son from the Bible. Timble is lost, but eventually found. And the central ideas that I took from the book are two: Stories tie us together. And we can always find our way home if we look hard enough.
