Legend of the guardians: the owls of ga'hoole (HarperCollins Publishers)

Now a major motion picture! Enter the world of the owls and meet the heroes who keep it safe! Born in the forest of the barn owls, Soren loves life's little pleasures, like the feel of a centipede pattering down his throat. But evil lurks in the owl world, and threatens to change the course of Soren's life forever. One terrifying night the strangers come. They capture Soren and fly him to a deep canyon, where the destruction of all owls is being planned. Now Soren will have to do something he has never done before: he will have to fly!
