PIGEONS HC
Life is simple for the pigeons. They have no desire to contemplate their future or
take control of it. Free from responsibility, they are all too willing to submit to a strong authority.This is precisely what a cruel and power-hungry crow was waiting for—a perfect opportunity to wield his natural talents as a tyrant. The crow enforces law and order, but also terror and arbitrary rules. Everyone seems to accept this situation—or maybe, they are too scared to resist. Until an idealistic seagull steps in, determined to challenge the system through debate and free elections. (STL382124) (C: 0-1-2)
