Industry Reviews
"The Pigeon is whiny, shortsighted, narcissistic, needy, relentless and nakedly manipulative; in short, the Pigeon is a thinly veiled 4-year-old, drawn by Willems with a sure, simple line and a keen sense, as the pages turn, of comic timing. Like Walt Disney and Charles Schulz before him, Willems understands the primal power and allure of the circle: as characters seemingly drawn with compasses go, the Pigeon--its face in most views is a surprisingly expressive series of concentric circles--can stand toe-to-ideographic-toe with Mickey Mouse and Charlie Brown."
