The Parable of the Peacock
The Parable of the Peacock: A Read-Aloud Picture Book for 2020 Voters | Brent Bohlen
1 post | 1 read
The Parable of the Peacock takes a satirical look at the state of American politics as we approach the critical 2020 presidential election. Written in the style of a children's picture book, the work's rhyming couplets are best enjoyed read aloud. The book serves up ridicule to deserving parties, but it saves a heaping plateful for the Mocker-in-Chief.

3 ⭐This is one of those picture books meant for adults. It‘s a look at the 2020 election. It is tongue and cheek. It is satirical and decently interesting. However, as a picture book, it doesn‘t really work. It‘s too long and gets a bit confounding. Since this was written for adult, it gets a pass. It‘s one of those books that is a flash in a pan. Will laugh at later and will only be found in Specialty collections in the decades to come.
