Help Readers Grow With the Owl Diaries Branches Series

If your child is ready to move beyond picture books — and loves stories about animals and friendship — then Owl Diaries is just the series to keep them reading!

These books follow the adventures of Eva Wingdale, a sweet and colorful owl from Treetopolis, who loves sharing her experiences in her very own diary. Emerging readers can follow along as Eva learns how to ask for help, encourages her classmates to work together, and finds out how to offer support to others — all with her best friend Lucy by her side. 

Plus, your child will be excited to see the books come to life in the series Eva the Owlet on AppleTV+! When the sun goes down, adventure takes flight in Eva's treetop community. Pair the series with Eva the Owlet: The Story of Eva & Friends and introduce your reader to Eva and all the other characters in Treetopington. 

Part of Scholastic’s early chapter book line called Branches, the Owl Diaries series is perfect for newly independent readers who are between leveled readers and traditional chapter books. With easy-to-read text, fast-paced plots, and illustrations on every page, these books will boost reading confidence and enhance reading comprehension. The Owl Diaries is also a great way to introduce your child to journaling and foster their creativity, imagination, and reflection. 

For instance, in Owl Diaries #19: Eva for President, Eva steps up to run for class president of Treetop Elementary! Who will win the big vote to become president of the class? The Owl Diaries books will help your child progress to more text-heavy chapter books as their reading skills continue to grow.

For instance, in Owl Diaries #20: The Owlympics, the Games are about to begin at Treetop Elementary School! It's going to be a flaptastic week full of games, races, and owlmazing obstacle courses and Eva wants to be excited like all her other classmates. But as the Games begin, and the pressure to win starts to build, Eva is afraid of letting her team down. Will she be able to overcome her fears to compete for first place?
