Paul, an owl, and Hector, a mouse go on a journey to find Mr. Night

Paul, an owl, and Hector, a mouse, were good friends because Hector nursed Paul to health when Paul was just a baby. Sometime later, they were both upset because they couldn’t sleep. Mr. Sun wouldn’t go to bed and Mr. Night wouldn’t appear. Paul and Hector went on a journey to find Night. They asked Woodpecker, a blue and red bird, and Frog, “Can you help us find Night?” They said they hadn’t so Paul and Hector flew back to owl territory with tears in their eyes.
