Synopsis
Every day, Phil, Jim, and Harry are fed sunflower seeds by the staff who care for them at The Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine. But one day, they decide they're sick of them. They make a break for the New York City streets in search of pizza or Chinese takeout.
But everywhere they go, they're told "No peacocks!" So they try to get an ooey, gooey, delicious meal closer to home. But how are they going to sneak into the school's dining hall and get their wings on the school's world-famous mac 'n cheese? A little plotting, some stolen disguises, and help from the students, and mission mac 'n cheese is a go! Will the peacocks finally get their mac 'n cheese? Or will their cover be blown, forcing them to fly the coop?
Inspired by the real-life beloved, celebrity birds living on the grounds of The Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine, and brought to the page in bold, bright style, No Peacocks! is a hilarious romp and a perfect read-aloud.
