Pigeon Boy is a children's cartoon created by Millimages of France, and is shown on a number of television networks, including the Australian Broadcasting Corporation in Australia.[1] It is set in the fictional city of Ultrapolis and centres on the lives of three teenagers: Pigeon Boy, and his two friends, Arthur and Chloe.[2]
Plot
The cartoon is about a 14- or 15-year-old named Randolf, or Randy to his friends, whose town's pigeons transform him into a mysterious, comical, and lovable hero named Pigeon Boy. The pigeons spy on the town residents without being noticed very much. When they see something fishy is going on in the city, they summon Pigeon Boy. Only Randy's two best friends, Arthur and Chloe know about this hero side of him, but they don't tell him that they know; if Randy is aware that any one knows, he has vowed to give up the hero within him and never save his town again.
