Illustrated by
Natalie Nelson.
In the story, as in life, young Flannery O'Connor collects birds of all kinds until acquiring the King of Birds himself, a peacock. The story departs from life (and ethology) in some rather ginned-up suspense about the peacock not displaying its tail (the reveal of which is worth waiting for thanks to Nelson's mixed-media collage illustration). Otherwise the story and art are lighthearted and whimsical.
