The story is about a Peacock who was different to the pigeons he grew up with. This made him sad. He hated his colourful feathers but after meeting lots of different birds he learnt to love his feathers and love that he was different.
The message was that everyone is special is their own way and to love yourself.
It is a good story because it has a good message.
