Baxter would like to be the star of a book, not just see his name there. But he is not the right kind of creature – in fact it’s difficult to tell just what he is! And his name is just too unusual. Then he sees a sign for an audition for a book character. Is this his chance? Or do the other candidates already have too much experience in stories? It just doesn’t work for Baxter. But what is that book the small owl has been reading? The illustrations are simply but boldly drawn in wash and crayon, with direct appeal to children – as is Baxter, whatever he is.
