Meet Eva
Tuesday
Hello Diary,
My name is Eva Wingdale. I live at
Treehouse 11 on Woodpine Avenue in
Treetopolis.

I love:
YOU - my new diary!
Drawing
Colors (especially red)
Making stuff

The word pumpkin
Cool clothes
School
Being busy
3
I DO NOT love:
My brother Humphrey’s
stinky socks
Sue Clawson
(She is REALLY mean!)
Cleaning my beak
The word plop
4
Asking for help
Squirrels
Mom’s slug sandwiches
Being bored
5
Oh, and I’m an owl!
6
Owls are super cool.
We’re awake in the nighttime.
We’re asleep in the daytime.
We can turn our heads
almost all the way around.
And we can fly!
7
Here is my owl family:
Me
Dad
Humphrey Baby Mo
Mom
8
AND here is my pet bat, Baxter!
He’s so cute!
9
My very BEST friend in the whole
owliverse is Lucy Beakman.
Lucy lives in the tree next door to
mine. We have sleepovers all the time!

Lucy also sits next to me at school.

Oh, no! I’m late for school! I’ll write
