"Why can't you look at my work rather than my feathers?" is Perry the peacock's question, as he struggles for acceptance in the company of penguins""who'd always been in charge. Flashing his feathers, he finds, just makes the penguins that much keener to put him into a penguin suit. This corporate culture fable also has Ed the eagle, Helen the hawk, Mike the mockingbird and Sara the swan. They all try to make themselves useful""till, led by Perry, they fly off to the "land of opportunity" that actually lives up to its motto "E Pluribus Maximus" (Greatness from Many), let everyone be themselves, keeps itself open to new ideas and thus maximises the true value of biped diversity. | |
