( Log Out /  It's a great book for kids to relate too even if they don't realize it at first. So from hot dogs to dogs. The pigeon wants a puppy for no reason at all and he acts like he would take care of it but we all know that he would eat it immediately after getting it. He'll take really good care of it! As Pidge explains his desire for a puppy, he first offers reasons why he’d be good a taking care of a puppy. In fall 2007, Mo Willems ran a contest for children to name the newest Pigeon book. I especially connected with the way he goes from 0 to 60 when excited or upset. Change ), You are commenting using your Google account. Like many children, Pidge moves on quickly from one form of argument to the next. Willems does not use any obvious cultural markers. Critically acclaimed and beloved by children, this talented cartoonist is the creator of so many beloved characters, including the demanding Pigeon as well as the best friends Elephant & Piggie. It’s also funny and great for beginning readers and younger children. I think the pigeon is silly because it wants a puppy as a pet. I’ll take care of it!”) to sulking to a full-blown tantrum: “I WANT A PUPPY! The vocabulary is simple and would be easy for any beginning reader to attempt.

I like the part when the puppy came to lick the pigeon. Children will be able to see themselves in the pigeon character and think about things that they have wanted in the past. Just a moment while we sign you in to your Goodreads account. I would also use this book to talk to the children in my class about what things are needed to take care of a puppy. Haha! The vocabulary is simple and would be easy for any beginning reader to attempt. This book shares the same main character as The Ducking get a Cookie, Don’t let the Pigeon Stay up Late!, The Pigeon Finds a Hot Dog!, Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!, The Pigeon Loves Things That Go!, and, The Pigeon Has Feelings, Too!. Until, that is, he meets one! The climax creates a humorous situation as the pigeon realizes he is in over his head and quickly abandons the thing he so recently wanted so desperately (another very common and believable situation). Pigeon is a sassy bird who knows what he wants and will do his best to convince you of the same. I chose this children's picture book to read because almost all kids like a story about animals and find that animal stories are always entertaining and fun to read. The strengths of this book are its use of humor to convey theme and the extensive character development of the pigeon.
