Great book; bad processing at Amazon
5 Stars
Great book; bad processing at Amazon
The book is another fantastic addition to the collection for any Mo Willems fan, particularly a youngster who is getting ready to start school. I am an elementary school librarian, and am looking forward to starting off the year with this for my prekindergarten and kindergarten students. It humorously tackles some of those fears children have about school.My only complaint is actually about Amazon. The cover of the book was damaged. It's minor, the bottom of the book looks like it got hit on the corner of something and there is a small scratch above Pigeon's head. No biggie, but still disappointing.

I've been teaching for 3 years and always LOVE the first week of school. It's a wonderful time to connect with students AND remind them of the importance of knowledge. Teaching Middle School has taught ME the value of picture books - they still love them!

I bought this as a must to read to my students on the first day of school. It's cute, easy to read, and has a wonderful message for all ages! I can allow my students to reflect and interact with the main message all throughout the school year!

My grandson loves these pigeon books ( and other books by the same author, especially when Pigeon makes a cameo appearance). He loves to spot the Pigeon in unlikely pages and loves Pigeon’s hilarious antics.

This is another clever entry in Mo Willems collection of "Pigeon" books. Our grandson got his first book -- "Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus" -- as a baby. I almost didn't read it to him; it just didn't look like it would be good. Wrong. He's now 2.5 years old and has added Bath and this book, and all are great favorites. Simple drawings and kid-friendly verbiage. Funny in layers that will appeal to him for years to come. Nice work.

My grandson loves the pigeon book series. He could not find the series at his school library and was so upset. I found the books on Amazon and send him one every week or so. He's so excited to get the books in the mail addressed to him! I also purchased the stuffed Pigeon for his 7th birthday along with the Pigeon blanket and more Pigeon books. He loves them and is excited to see what the Pigeon does next with it's Pigeon attitude!

Mo Willams delivers again. My sons took this out of my hands before I could even read it myself. I bought this to start the year for my first grade classroom. Pigeon is a great character that most all children can relate to. What I love about this book, as will many of the other Mo Willems books is that it is a great discussion starter. The book arrived from Amazon Canada in great shape.
