A poignant and beautiful tale about happiness.

Follow one Crow's quest to discover the happiest bird in the world. He encounters a softly cooing dove, an elegant swan, and a much-loved cockerel before finally meeting a peacock, bound in a golden cage. Crow is in awe of the creature's magnificent bejewelled tail - and believes this must be the happiest bird of all. But when Crow discovers the peacock's wish to fly free, he realizes who was the happiest bird all along.

"Crow and the reader learn the lesson about what is really important in life and that one must count your own blessings. A strong message for the current situation and beautifully conveyed in nicely repetitive text and imaginative use of typography as well glorious colour. A really worthwhile addition to the library." - Joy Court, LoveReading4Kids
