PreS-Gr 1--The winged wonder with the sassy style is back as the urban dwelling bird reaches a milestone: graduation. The book progresses through the moments before graduation with clever use of the environment: stage stairs morphing into mountains or valleys to illustrate the intensity of reaching the point of graduation. Getting an education is no mean feat. Pigeon is here to handle the joys of getting through school while also panicking in fear of the future, in classic Pigeon fashion. This is a perfectly planned book release, as the generation that grew up with Pigeon's adventure is reaching graduation milestones. What's more comforting than having this familiar character accompanying them through this huge step? VERDICT A great replacement for Oh, the Places You'll Go as a graduation gift.
