I love illustrators. They're so clever. Even though I teach third grade, I'm still IN LOVE with Mo WIllems and everything PIGEON. When his Elephant and Piggie series debuted, I was teaching second grade and though they may have been "too easy" for my kids, I've never heard more expression in my life! And, let's face it...they're hilarious. So when The Thank You Book came out, I was heartbroken that it was the last in this series of lovable characters. But don't panic, other authors are teaming up with Mo Willems as Elephant and Piggie introduce us to new characters. Here is one of my third graders reading The Cookie Fiasco by Dan Santat. This student came running up to me as excited as could be when he saw the teeniest tiniest pigeon in the world! I love that Dan Santat embraces the love for that Pigeon the same way I do, and I adore these hidden gems inside new books. Better be careful...you never know when that Pigeon is going to make and appearance!
