The Pigeon HAS to Go to School!
Illustrator
The Pigeon HAS to Go to School! is a strong choice for readers looking for school picture books shaped by school, community. Mo Willems builds the story around the Pigeon does his best to avoid school in a comic monologue that captures first-day nerves from a child's-eye angle. For families, educators, and librarians building lists of DEI picture books, BIPOC picture books, and strong read-alouds, this title brings real value for conversations about school, community. See more school read-alouds, or compare it with Amy June Bates's The Big Umbrella for another angle.
