Don’t Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late!"I am a volunteer reading tutor for a second grader. I purchased this book to read with my student. Perfect book to engage young readers. We had fun taking turns playing the character of the pigeon as we read. I really found this book to be helpful in teaching my student to read phrases instead of reading one word at a time. Also a great book to practice reading with expression. Story and illustrations are creative and captivating. All around fun reading experience. Mission accomplished!" - Amazon Review. Here is the full text of the book: Don’t Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late! by Mo WillemsOh, good. It’s you! Listen, it’s getting late and I need to brush my teeth. Can you do me a favor?
Don’t let the pigeon stay up late!
Thanks!
First of all, I’m not even tired.
In fact, I’m in the mood for a hot dog party!
What do you say?
No?
Humph?
I hear there’s a good show about birds on TV tonight.
Should be very educational.
How about five more minutes?
Oh, c’mon! What’s five minutes in the grand scheme of things?!
What?! What?!
I’M NOT TIRED?
Y’know, we never get to talk anymore.
Tell me about your day...
Oh! I’ve got a great idea!
We could count the stars!
Can I have a glass of water?
Studies show that pigeons hardly need any sleep at all!
It’s the middle of the day in China!
I’ll go to bed early tomorrow night instead!
Hey, hey! Ho, ho! This here pigeon just won’t go!
Pleeeeeaaaasssseee!
My bunny wants to stay up too!
You can’t say "No" to a bunny, can you?
YAWN!
OKAY THAT WAS NOT A YAWN!
I was just stretching.
I’m (YAWN) 110% awake...!
You haven’t heard (YAWN) last of me.
ZZZZZZz...ZZZZZZz
Great work.
Thanks.
