            Have you ever tried to talk you parents into letting you do something that you shouldn't do?  Well, that is just what the pigeon does in "Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus".  The pigeon wants to drive the bus so bad that he does everything he can to try and talk the driver into letting him drive.  He first tries to bargain with him and then pleads with the driver.  You will have to read the story to see if the driver gives in and lets the pigeon drive the bus.

    It sounds like your audience is for adults, when I would want a booktalk to be for your students. Can you re-work this one? And add an APA citation?

    P.S. and email me when you have re-worked it so I'll remember to go look again.
