Book Synopsis

Mo Willems' Pigeon is BACK in a hilarious story perfect for those about to start school or nursery.

There is no such thing as a bad Mo Willems book The Times

The Pigeon is about to get SCHOOLED. Do YOU think he should go?

Why does the Pigeon have to go to school? He already knows everything! Well ... almost everything. And what if he doesn't like it? What if the teacher doesn't like him? I mean, what if he learns TOO MUCH!?!



Trade Review
“As the summer holidays begin, and you’re looking for literature to line little stomachs, you are unlikely to find a funnier, jollier, truer book than this on the subject. […] Willems plays with scale and colour to express the pigeon’s feelings in his utterly distinctive illustrations. The words and pictures are as strong as each other. […] This got a big laugh with my one-boy focus group.” * The Times, Children’s Book of the Week *
[…] perfect for those starting school [...] * Index Magazine *
A hilarious story perfect for anyone feeling a little reluctant about starting at school or nursery. * Mini Travellers *
