The Pigeon Wants a Puppy

The pigeon wants a puppy. And the words and pictures by Mo Willems. It is a book for Nelson. Hyperion Books for children. New York.

Oh, hello. How are you? I’m fine. Thanks for asking. By the way, do you know what I want? What I’ve wanted forever...? At least since last Tuesday. A puppy! Puppy! Puppy! Puppy! Oh, don’t worry. I will take care of it! I promise I’ll water it once a month. What? Everybody knows that puppies need plenty of sunshine and water! Oh... I get it. You don’t want me to be happy, do you? You don’t want me to take a piggyback ride on my puppy! Or play tennis with it. You just don’t understand. I’m a puppy-lovin’pigeon! Awww......puppies. I WANT A PUPPY! RIGHT HERE! RIGHT NOW! Woof! What’s that? Woof! Woof! Is it possible? Have my dreams come true?! Woof? AAAAAAAAAGGHH!!! It’s HUGE! The teeth! The hair! That wet nose! The slobber! The claws! I mentioned the teeth, right? Really, I had no idea! I’ve changed my mind. I want a walrus!
