Ok. So apparently I'm a predator for writing about childrens books using the tone that I do (thanks, Mom), but I had to write about this great little book. Mo Willems (past writer of Sesame Street) created a great little ditty in 2003 that I've loved since I first read it while I was writing my own childrens book (it turned out horribly). The story throws the reader (presumably a child) into a first-person drama as the pigeon gets angry that you won't let him drive the bus. Hilarity ensues, and the pigeon gradually blows up to the point that he reminds me of my 7th grade choir teacher banging on the piano with tears in his eyes trying to get us to stop making fart sounds during the rests. Alas, brilliance.
