Owls was just approved for the Kindle Fire, in addition to the iPad and Nook. The iPad version came out last Thursday and sales have been really nothing to take note of. I think because of the time of day it hit the store it was quickly buried. Hopefully it get's picked up for New and Noteworthy tomorrow otherwise I think it's a bust on the iPad.
Here's the full game description:
Equal parts education and entertainment, Owls is a fun matching game for children of all ages.
The Parliament School for Owls is very serious about the Buddy System. Every Owl has a buddy, and is not allowed to come in from recess without them. Your job is to help the Owls find their buddy and get in for lunch! Learn about Owls, watch the seasons change and see how quickly you can send the Owls home. Can you earn 3 stars in every level?
In Owls, children match random pairs of owls to clear the screen. After successfully completing each level, they are rewarded with a little fact about owls. Every 25 levels the seasons change from Spring to Summer, Fall and Winter. They can earn up to 3 stars per level depending on how quickly they clear the screen, and go back as many times as they wish to retry.
Features:
* 999 Random Levels
* 30 Different Owls
* 40 Different backgrounds showing all 4 seasons
* Fun facts about Owls after every level
* 22 Game Center Achievements
* Game Center Leader boards
* Bright and Fun music
This app contains no advertisements, in-app purchases or outside links of any kind. When playing this game, children stay in the game. (this was such a good statement that I 'borrowed' the idea from @liquidgameworks and rewrote it

Hope everything works out well, especially for the Kindle Fire. That market is hot right now as you know. Pun intended.
I'm already at work on my next quick game. I've got lots of small apps to do while waiting for the ulna free engine to tackle Obliteration II
Hows the Nook working for you? Did you make it into the promotion? My Monster has already sold 1000 units in the Nook promotion.
Hopefully it does well on one of the three devices
Your Owls app is safely sandwiched between butterbean's 3 ABC Owl apps!
Sales have been dismal so far. Its tough to see so much hard work not even make a splash.

This is an amazing game. You should pick it up, even though it is for kids. It's obvious he put a ton of work into it!
