If you have a youngster that likes 
, then please get thee to a library and check out this latest addition to the Pigeon legacy.My two children, currently 6 and 8, just adored this book. Since we checked it out, they've read it to each other about 10 times -- each! It starts out conversationally with Pigeon saying 'hi' to the reader, and then goes into a rant about how much Pigeon wants a puppy.
"By the way, do you know what I want?"
"What I've wanted forever...?"
"At least since last Tuesday...?"
"A PUPPY!"
"Puppy!"
"Puppy!"
"Puppy!"
Pigeon then goes on to show that he/she hasn't ever met a puppy, but that's all part of the fun. "I promise I'll water it once a month." (LOL!!!)

While you're at it, check out the boardbook "The Pigeon Loves Things That Go!" This little book has some humor that Toddlers and Preschoolers will enjoy. (Okay, my goofy 6 year old son liked it and begged to check it out.)Considerations:::
No Accelerated Reading level is given for this book. You should assume that it must be read to children. (My guess would put it on a latter part of the first grade level.)
