Praise for this book

Praise for The Pigeon Will Ride the Roller Coaster!
"Willems' spare illustrations put the spotlight right where it belongs, on the Pigeon's incredibly expressive body language, flapping and flopping through the comic panels. The Pigeon is one multifaceted bird, and this latest is one of the best in Willems' flock of Pigeon adventures." --Booklist, starred review
"Roller-coaster enthusiasts or not, children will eagerly join our intrepid hero on this entertaining ride." --Kirkus Review
"Whether you opt to dive into the entire series or just have a 'smidgeon of pigeon' with the newest title, Mo Willems never disappoints." --SheKnows
