Where it came from
Published in 2011 by Scholastic, Three Hens and a Peacock was written by educator and author Lester L. Laminack as a humorous exploration of farm life and the nature of work. The narrative follows a group of hens who feel underappreciated compared to the flashy, idle peacock on their farm, leading to a job-swapping experiment that teaches the animals about the value of different roles within a community.
The book is notable for its vibrant, whimsical illustrations by Henry Cole, whose character designs bring a distinct personality to each animal. The collaboration between Laminack and Cole was well-received by educators and parents, frequently appearing in primary school curricula as a tool for teaching lessons on perspective, envy, and the importance of individual contribution.
