I'm 16, and my friends and I LOVE these books. we sat in the library on a friday night, reading them for a couple hours, until we got kicked out for laughing to loud. They are really funny!

I love all the Pigeon books but this is my favorite to share with kids. It's just so much fun to read aloud and there is even a nice lesson on sharing hidden in all the laughter. I am a reading specialist and own 4 copies of this book because once I read it every child wants to get their hands on a copy. Without fail they will read it like they have an audience even if they are in a quiet corner by themselves. This book just has to be shared!

We have to read this one nearly every night, but surprisingly, it's not hard. Short and sweet and funny. The pigeon has a little attitue, but he learns that sharing rocks! All Mo Willems books are winers. They make great gifts and any child two - six should be giggling by page two. Buy more than one because kids catch onto the pigeon's schtick pretty quickly and they just want more.
