Picture Book Party: Meet the Pigeon

Let's party, picture book-style! Looking for a fun, fast read to make you giggle? Want to see some really cool illustrations? These books are great for kids of all ages ... from 1 to 100!

This week's Picture Book Party Guest of Honor is: the Pigeon

He's sassy. He's silly. He's ... a talking pigeon. And boy, does this pigeon like to talk! In Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus, our feathered friend tries to trick readers into helping him steal a bus, because he really, really wants to drive it! In The Pigeon Wants a Puppy, Pigeon promises to feed and water his pet puppy once a week. Silly Pigeon!

Parents, author and illustrator Mo Willems creates laugh-out-loud stories to read about the petulant Pigeon, and they are great read-alouds for preschoolers, but the silly pictures and funny stories are perfect for anyone who needs a giggle.

You can find him in: Check out the Pigeon's many adventures, written and illustrated by Mo Willems, in our Easy section, under New Lenox Public Library Call Number E WIL
