Being Myself is a contemplative exploration of the essential nature of our self.Everyone has the sense of 'being myself, ' but not everyone knows their self clearly.

From the New York Times-bestselling illustrator of Sleepy Sheepy and The Good Egg comes an irresistible new character who insists on doing everything owl by himself today. He might not be great at it, but it’s fun to see him try!Owl wakes up with a mission for the day: to do everything owl by himself. Like clean his room. (Don’t look in that corner. Or that corner…) Brush his teeth. (Just step over that small mountain of toothpaste on the floor.) And pack his backpack for school. (You can never bring too many stuffies to school!)Follow a day in the life of the most adorable owl you’ve ever seen as he proves he’s a big boy ready to take care of himself - or at least tries his best.

While it’s filled visual gags that will make readers laugh, it ends with a bedtime moment that will make them go aww.
