Product Description

Review

"For a child, it's a delirious formula: all of a sudden, you're in charge of a bus... Well executed and so smartly layered." The New York Times; "This picture book demands audience participation... Readers will identify with the pigeon themselves!" The Bookseller"


Product Description

When the driver leaves the bus temporarily, he gives the reader just one instruction: "Don't let the pigeon drive the bus!" But, boy, that pigeon tries every trick in the book to get in that driving seat: he whines, wheedles, fibs and flatters. Will you let him drive? Told entirely in speech bubbles, this is a brilliantly original book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for parents that need a little humor!, 19 Jul 2005
By E. V. Moscow (Moscow, Russia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus (Hardcover)
My son adores this book! He is 1 1/2 and literally cries to have this book above all books to be read for him. Honestly I bought it for me, because many children's books are quite dull and lack humor. On more than one occasion I have brought this book out to show other Mom's and they frantically write down the ISBN code to order this book. Have fun reading it!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Noooooooo!, 4 Feb 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus (Hardcover)
This is my favourite kids' book of all time. It's interactive in the sense that the reader can pretend to be the bus driver and the pigeon and the readee can then shout no at the pigeon in response to all his requests. It's funny, brilliantly drawn and my daughter likes it too. Buy it immediately

4.0 out of 5 stars fun for all, 15 Nov 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus (Hardcover)
My 2 year-old loves this book (shouting "No!" every time the pigeon asks to drive the bus) and we all enjoy reading it to him, including my 6 year-old son. It's a simple idea which really works (good illustrations, too).
