Mo Willems once again delivers a lighthearted and laugh-inspiring story in Don’t Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late! Children will delight in the quirky, simple illustrations while parents nod along knowingly as the Pigeon offers one excuse after another to avoid the inevitable bed time. The story succeeds in engaging young readers by immediately leaving it up to them to ensure the Pigeon doesn’t stay up late. While the Pigeon tries to entice readers with an array of reasoning he can’t help but give a yawn…or two, or three. Creative, funny, and interactive this book is sure to win over the hearts of young readers.
Suitable for ages 2-6.

Don’t Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late is by far my favorite of the Pigeon books. Even after having read it a hundred times as a bedtime story it continues to entertain.
