Mr Peacock asks kind Mrs Owl to take his child's lunch to school. He tells her she will recognise his child easily, as the most beautiful child there. But Mrs Owl can't find a child more beautiful than her own, so the lunch is not delivered! Mr Peacock learns a valuable lesson about vanity. Full of dazzling birds and Papas's signature wit.
