I am new to this website and would very much appreciate help in my search for the author of a children's short story. This involved an owl who persuaded all the birds to sleep in the day and wake up at night. The end of the tale was when the birds realised they had been deceived and their joyful singing became the dawn chorus. My daughter had this story in an anthology when she was little - long since lost. I've forgotten the author and have tried various leads without success. Many thanks in anticipation
