Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!

by Mo Willems

Buy on Amazon

No matter how hard he pleads and begs, the pigeon is not supposed to drive the bus while the driver is away, but pigeon tries every persuasive trick a young child knows to get you to say "Yes."

Recommended by

"Yes! It’s the characterisation which is so very good in this book. There is so little in this book apart from the pigeon trying to convince you (the reader) to let him drive the bus. It’s so simple and yet so expressive. It shows what can be done with just a few lines and a limited palate, and bags of talent! The huge range of emotions, how exaggerated they are: the pigeon does everything from pleading, to going into a massive rage, to trying to bribe you with a fiver, to downright manipulation: “Your mum would let me.”"
