Review
"Pigeon's been winning hearts since he first appeared with that bus, and best-selling, multi-multi-award-winning Willems is irresistible to kids and grown-ups alike." Booklist
Review
"Yes, that's the "Hallelujah Chorus" you hear. You're hearing it because there's a new Pigeon book from Mo Willems." Shelf Awareness
Review
"All the typical worries and excuses kids have about school are filtered through Willems' hysterical, bus-loving Pigeon. Told mostly in speech balloons, the bird's monologue will have kids (and their caregivers) in stitches at Pigeon's excuses.... Yes, the Pigeon has to go to school, and so do readers, and this book will surely ease the way." Kirkus Reviews
