Brilliantly simple book that is absolutely true to life, as anyone who interacts with an obdurate three-year-old can attest.

In a wonderfully expressive spread, the pigeon finally loses it, and, feathers flying and eyeballs popping, screams "Let Me Drive The Bus!!!" in huge, scratchy, black-and-yellow capital letters. The driver returns, and the pigeon leaves in a funk-until he spies a huge tractor trailer, and dares to dream again.
