Mo Willems' acclaimed and Caldecott Honor Award-winning picture book debut celebrates 20 years!
“There’s no such thing as a bad Mo Willems’ book” The Times
“This brilliant story...manages to be beautiful to look at and funny to read, as well as requiring active audience participation” Guardian
“A raucous, zany, skit of a picture book...a masterful way of channelling a toddler's high spirits” The Telegraph
“If there’s a living creator of children’s books who stands a chance of occupying a cultural position akin to a Dr Seuss or a Charles M. Schulz, it’s Mr Willems.” The New York Times
When a bus driver takes a break, 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 brilliantly original and funny picture book demands audience participation!
