The Pigeon Wants a Puppy


How could you possibly go wrong with a Pigeon book? You can't.


We've already seen Pigeon declare his love for public transportation in Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus, but in this one he's moved on to puppies. Just as persuasive as you would expect, Pigeon tries his best to convince you that he will be a responsible ("I'll water it every day!") and loving ("I'm a puppy-lovin' pigeon!") parent. When logical reasons such as those don't seem to work, he resorts to a sudden and hilarious rant ("I WANT A PUPPY!"). He really pulls out all the stops on this one, showing the full range of persuasive techniques. His arguments have improved slightly but he still hasn't learned much in the ways of successful persuasive angles and effective techniques. He doesn't get a puppy just like he doesn't get to drive the bus, but you might be surprised with why he doesn't get the puppy. This one's just as hilarious/entertaining/voice-filled/persuasion-filled as any of his others. The Pigeon doesn't disappoint. How could he?
