When the pinkish, purplish, bluish egg hatches, out comes a griffin named Ezekiel. The old owl insists that he is not real and the other birds finds him too ferocious-looking. But in spite of his eagle beak and lion body, Zeke shows that he had s heart of gold and is as meek as the turtledove who hatched him. In rhymed verse.
