Percy the Peacock lives contentedly on Farmer John's farm, where he is beloved by all the animals and the farming family. Every morning, Percy performs his magnificent display, spreading his beautiful tail feathers like a fan of emerald, sapphire, and gold. His daily dance brings joy to everyone on the farm, from the farmer and his wife Mary to the barn cat Ginger and the sheepdog Blue.
One blustery morning, strong winds arrive unexpectedly, disrupting Percy's peaceful routine. Despite his confidence and determination, Percy finds himself unable to perform his cherished display as the wind keeps blowing his magnificent feathers out of place. Each try ends in frustration and embarrassment, leaving the proud peacock feeling defeated and ashamed.
Two kind-hearted children, Lily and Tom, witness Percy's struggle from the farmhouse. Having always admired the beautiful peacock, they cannot bear to see him so distressed. Lily suggests they help Percy by bringing him to the safety of the big red hay barn, where the wind cannot reach.
Inside the peaceful barn, surrounded by the sweet scent of hay and golden sunbeams, Percy finally succeeds in creating his perfect display. Grateful for their kindness and friendship, Percy plucks four of his most beautiful feathers for each child as a token of appreciation and good luck.
The story concludes with Percy learning that true friendship is more valuable than individual pride, and that sometimes we all need help from others. The children treasure their feathers as symbols of kindness and the special bond they've formed with their peacock friend.
