The Pigeon Has Feelings, Too!

There is just something about that Pigeon! THE PIGEON HAS FEELINGS, TOO! is another installment in the Pigeon series by Mo Willems. A board book geared toward toddlers, THE PIGEON HAS FEELINGS, TOO! is part of the "A Smidgeon of Pigeon" subset of the Pigeon books which allows very young children to share in the enjoyment of the adventures and antics of Pigeon. Don't get me wrong, though, this book is still classic Pigeon. In THE PIGEON HAS FEELINGS, TOO! the characteristic line drawings, simple and colorful, introduce toddlers to the concept of feelings, expressed in typical Pigeon fashion. Pigeon stomps when he is angry, mopes when he is sad, and dances when he is happy. The pictures elicit grins and giggles as this short story unfolds. The Pigeon is a unique and distinctive character, and his voice is perfect for young children to relate to. He pouts, he shouts, he gets very stubborn. Even the youngest readers/listeners know he sounds just like they do. He speaks directly to them, too, which just adds to the fun. THE PIGEON HAS FEELINGS, TOO! is a great addition to any Pigeon collection. Cute, silly, and fun, your kids will have a great time with this book.

Mo Willems' books are highly entertaining and creative. I started buying them for my nephews and now i have the pleasure of buying them for my son.

This book follows the original "Pigeon" books but is geared for toddlers. It uses simple language and the board book format. Young children may enjoy the pigeon's antics on their own with out concern for torn pages. We also have the other books, "Pigeon finds a hot dog" and the original, "Don't let the pigeon drive the bus." I enjoy it with children and marvel at the range of emotions that the author/illustrator achieves with a simple line drawing. Thank you Mo Willems!

I'm a teacher and I read the book "Don't let the pigeon ride the bus" and I Loved it. This one is not as good as that one but it is rather cute.

I mention that this is a board book because so many parents seem dissapointed by how few pages it contains. Your kids will still love it.
