Flappy. The Pigeon Who Overcame Bullying!
The mission with these books is to help children through storytelling to develop healthy approaches to these issues. Flappy is a pigeon in Merlin Woods who is born with abnormally long wings that flap so loudly when he flies.
He is bullied by the others and is even asked to leave the woods. It is when he believes in himself and goes to successfully save the Princess of the Claddagh who has been kidnapped by dragons, that he finally understands.
Bullies are cowards and the reason he is bullied is in fact, his greatest strength! He gets a medal of bravery and a friend for life when he starts to use his greatest strength and proves the bullies wrong.
