Description Description

Paul the Peacock was once the most selfish animal in the forest, but now he’s trying to embrace his new identity of Mr Kind… but it’s exhausting! When his cousin sends a letter asking for help he tries to ignore it. Best pal, Norris, has other ideas though.

Together, Paul and Norris embark on a treacherous rescue adventure to help find Connie the peahen a new home. But when they arrive, a little lost egg joins the rescue party... much to Paul's dismay! When the egg hatches into a peafowl chick, Paul tries to leave it behind, but eventually takes the chick under his – colourful – wing! The little chick soon shows Paul that being caring and thoughtful may be worth it after all.

This hilarious story with comic deadpan moments and vivid, expressive illustrations conveys an important message about love and nurture.
