does not disappoint submitted by our family books on July 16, 2012, 11:13am Another Mo Willems book that does not disappoint. His books are
a huge favorite in our house and the humor is fantastic.

wonderful! submitted by fairytale on July 27, 2012, 10:47pm All the books in this series are funny for both kids and parents alike.

Great, sweet book! submitted by asiangirl on August 20, 2012, 10:18am Makes you want a cookie... without nuts!

Polite duckling submitted by Yanzhang on August 9, 2013, 10:00pm My kid like the silly pegion

Enjoyable submitted by Amber Kinder on June 14, 2014, 10:58am This book is cute and isn't unbearable when you are forced to read it again and again!

Duckling wants a cookie submitted by Alliemayzee on July 26, 2014, 2:49pm So cute! Love the pictures. Entertaining for my kids and for me.

ask and you shall receive submitted by mtrax on August 21, 2014, 9:54am Duckling asks for, and receives, a cookie. This upsets Pigeon, until Duckling happily gives him the cookie and gets another for himself.

the book submitted by Lillian34 on June 15, 2015, 4:25pm Great book

entertaining submitted by lgpat on August 25, 2015, 7:59pm this book made my kid laugh

This time, no nuts submitted by FordAlpha on August 28, 2017, 12:15pm The Pigeon is a proxy for all perpetually petulant toddlers, and I find him rather annoying, but the kids love his antics. This is probably my favorite of the Pigeon books; its resolution is more believable than that of the Duckling's first appearance ("The Pigeon Finds a Hot Dog"), and I'm a cookie lover myself, so I relate to the Pigeon's outrage at an unjust universe that would grant a delicious cookie to one character, but not to another. The book's lesson -- be polite, ask nicely -- is better conveyed and more effective than those of the other Pigeon books.

Pigeon submitted by Lila F. on June 20, 2018, 11:06pm These books are so cute and great for young readers. I really liked them when I was little!

Oh Pigeon... submitted by Cihendricks on August 4, 2018, 5:21pm The pigeon is ridiculous, but little ones love him. Also, as an adult, it's nice to read a book that has jokes for me in it too.

Cute submitted by TLW1998 on July 28, 2019, 6:44pm The duckling is so cute. Of course, the pigeon wants a cookie too. A fun book to read.

So cute submitted by KOH on August 2, 2019, 11:41pm Fun story with a sweet ending!

Pigeon! submitted by rummella on August 14, 2019, 2:13pm Mo Willems is a genius! Love him... Pigeon books beg for mommy/daddy provided voices and shows pigeon expressing frustration in a silly way...

Funny book! submitted by vulke99 on August 21, 2019, 10:48am Funny book! My kids loved it

Funny submitted by Rumshaker13 on August 26, 2019, 4:52pm Great book, this whole series is great and your kids will love it!

The Pigeon Wants Noms submitted by Meginator on August 21, 2021, 9:08am As usual, this book follows the Pigeon as he finds himself in a right lather over a seemingly minor inconvenience and eventually figures out that, perhaps, the world isn’t ending after all. The Duckling makes for a great addition to the series as the Pigeon’s opposite: he is sweet and chill on the outside, but is also a sly schemer who knows how to get precisely what he wants. It’s a nice contrast that provides a humorous, if not unexpected, kick to the end of the story and expands the Pigeon’s possibilities for the future.
