Angry Owl is the story of an owl who is fed up with the weather. He sits on the branch of a tree and watches as a huge storm brews while he is caught in the rain, wind, thunder, snow, hail and even a tornado. When at last the storm passes, Angry Owl is surprised to see the most beautiful rainbow in the sky. He realises that next time there’s a bad storm, he needn't be angry or upset because sometimes there are wonderful surprises at the end of a difficult time.
