"Another collection book, this is the unlikely tale of when a bus driver takes a quick break from his route, and a courageous pigeon decides that he can drive the bus instead. This wild pigeon is fill of character and tantrums, and we all know to never let a pigeon drive a bus. Ever. This book allows for students to guess the next parts of the story line and get a chance to interact with a pigeon. Not a squirrel or a real person, but a pigeon. <br/><br/>This book can be a great literary tool, as it not only allows for the lesson of predicting the pages, but also introducing writers into what it means to use thought bubbles and portray them in illustrations. I would use this as a funny tool, that I would gear for my beginning writers to take a look at. It's a very cartoon style, that kids will love, and will attempt to mimic. I would definitely want to have this in my classroom, along with the rest of Mo Willems work. <br/>"
