The crow and the peacock / - 1 volume (unpaged) : color illustrations ; 28 cm

Originally published: Oxford : Oxford University Press, 2020.

Crow sets out on a journey to find the happiest bird alive. Could it be the lovely dove, the musical nightingale, or the elegant swan? But each bird has their own reason to not be content, even the glamorous peacock. Perhaps all of Crow's searching will help him discover the real secret to happiness. This book retells a classic fable with warmth, personality, and a dose of humor. Energetic prose and vibrant illustrations encourage young readers to consider the dangers of comparison and the meaning of contentment.
