The Big Bird Battle tells the story of a turf war between two rival gangs: the Hard Hadedas and the Foul Guinea Fowl, each of which believes they have sole rights to the local park. As the other users of the park go about their daily activities, the rival birds harass and challenge each other. Their noisy scuffles cause a disruption until, finally, a pair of Egyptian geese intervene. Being larger than hadedas or guinea fowl, the geese soon take over, forcing the warring birds out of the park. As night falls and peace descends, the reader is left wondering whether this is truly the end of the conflict, or if the big bird battle will begin again as soon as the sun comes up.
