Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!
von Mo Willems
Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! is a children's picture book written and illustrated by Mo Willems. Published by Disney-Hyperion in 2003, it was Willems' first book for children, and received the Caldecott Honor. The plot is about a bus driver who has to leave so he asks the reader to not allow the Pigeon to drive the bus. The Pigeon wants to have at least one ride and comes up with various excuses to drive the bus, but the reader(s) keep on refusing, which aggravates the Pigeon. An animated adaptation of the book, produced by Weston Woods Studios in 2009, won the 2010 Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Children's Video. On December 11, 2025, it was announced that an animated series adaptation titled The Pigeon Show! Starring the Pigeon was greenlit by Paramount+ alongside The Elephant & Piggie Show! (based on another Mo Willems children's book series).
