Join Owl and Gecko as they hold a stare-off competition, with their humongous eyes, to decide once and for all who is the very best at staring in Owl Versus Gecko.

Who will blink first . Owl or Gecko?

Blink if you think you are the best

Blink if you would like me to blink first

Join Owl and Gecko as they hold a stare-off competition, with their humongous eyes, to decide once and for all who is the very best at staring. Owl doesn't know how to blink, so it must be an easy win – but Gecko has no eyelids! With neither giving in easily, they'll have to resort to other tricks. 

Can Owl outwit Gecko with a surprise phone call from Gecko’s mum? Or can Gecko distract Owl with a monkey on a motorbike? Watch as both creatures cleverly try to make each other blink – but neither are prepared for the unexpected arrival of a spider!

With witty text from new, bold author Gareth Hopkins and Alex Latimer's quirky, expressive illustrations, Owl Versus Gecko is packed with hilarious details for young readers to spot and laugh at, time and time again. Also available, from the same duo, is Cliff: The Man With a Seagull on his Head.
