There's an Owl in the Shower by Jean Craighead GeorgeDescription: Borden finds an owlet in the woods. His father, Leon, however, is a logger that has many people mad at him because the logging company wants to demolish a forest that is a habitat to the endangered spotted owls, so Leon hates the spotted owls. Borden brings the owl home, and his father only agrees to bring up his own popularity. Borden realizes that his owl, Bardy, is a spotted owl. Can Leon find a way to earn a living if he cannot cut trees? Can Borden keep the secret from his father that they are harboring the kind of owl that his father hates? And, more importantly, if Leon does find out that Bardy's a spotted owl, will he have the adorable owlet (who is like part of the family since he loves to take showers and watch late-night TV) be killed?
