Product Description: It’s getting dark out, but one stubborn Pigeon is NOT going to bed! Toddlers and parents will love this interactive bedtime romp, which puts readers back in the driver’s seat, following all of Pigeon’s sly trickery as he tries to outsmart the inevitable bedtime.
Use this book to deal with bedtime struggles Children recognize themselves when they read about the pidgeon who uses many delay tactics at bedtime. Children think it is funny, and adults will appreciate the help in getting their children off to bed.
All the excuses kids can think of... Mo Williems catches all the excuses kids can think of to avoid sleep. My 3 year old daughters typical excuses are 'I need a glass of water', 'I'm not sleepy at ALL' rubbing her eyes, even 'I have to clean the house'(taking a hint from my wife who has a habit of cleaning while I put the kids to bed.)
This book is hilarious because you can totally relate. I love how with each turning of the page, the background gets darker and darker. I love his Pigeon series but I have to say that this is my favorite.
Great book - for any time BUT bedtime! The pigeon throws all the standard tricks to get you to let him stay up late, you say no a lot, he falls asleep and dreams of having a hot dog party. Everybody's happy!
His arguments range the gamut from almost-sincere to positively silly to, of course, none at all. Great fun, can't find words to express that.
This book will tend to hype a kid up. If you are reading this at bedtime, put another, calmer book after it in the line-up. Something like "Goodnight Moon" or "Goodnight, Mr. Night" or "The Going to Bed Book". However, for daytime storytelling this is definitely great for the more fidgety kids, who get distracted at storytime easily. It *demands* audience participation.
Good, not as good as Don't Let The Pigeon Drive The Bus It's a cute follow-on, but somehow doesn't capture the magic of "Don't Let The Pigeon Drive The Bus!"
Don't Let These Books pass you by! Excellent book for a young reader. The story is really funny. Keeps my son engaged and we read one story every night! The whole series is hilarious.
