When Rocky's game of hide-and-seek in the big trees of Upstate New York takes a turn, the little owl gets taken on a ride, far far away from home just in time for Christmas.

On her journey, Rocky encounters a number of people-some human, some gigantic and gold-places, including the big frozen pond and her first experience "inside,"and most importantly, the glamour of unlimited mouse meals that she didn't have to hunt for herself. Rocky's Road to the Big City is sure to become a holiday story for the ages; a tiny, feathered piece of New York City holiday lore.

Based on the events surrounding the arrival of the 2020 Rockefeller Christmas Tree in New York City, this book tells the story from the perspective of the tiny saw-whet owl who stowed away in its branches. Follow along on Rocky's harrowing adventure from Oneonta to the Big Apple and meet the kind humans who help her along her journey.
