This book is so good at being a straight talking picture story book for grown ups and children alike.
It gives grown-ups an insight into how their child may be feeling at the prospect of school for the first time. During the reading of the story the child and grown-up can sit down and discuss why the Pigeon feels this way about school and offer answers together. The positively lovely denouement with the contrasting end papers will make this story one that will be read again.
Recommended for all children and grown-ups starting their new school life together.
