About This Book
Reach for this book when your child has discovered the art of the 'negotiation' or is struggling with the word 'no.' This modern classic places the reader in a position of authority, tasking them with a simple but firm responsibility: do not let the pigeon drive the bus. As the pigeon cycles through every tactic in the toddler playbook, from pleading and bribery to a full blown temper tantrum, your child gets to experience the boundary-setting from the other side. It is a brilliant tool for teaching emotional regulation and the importance of rules, all delivered through absurdist humor. This interactive experience is perfect for preschoolers who are testing their own independence and learning how to navigate frustration when they do not get their way. It transforms a power struggle into a shared laugh, making it easier to talk about why some rules are non-negotiable.
