A counting adventure you WON’T want to miss, from bestselling and award-winning author Mo Willems.

The Pigeon won’t count to ten, and here’s why:

Reasonably reasonable reason #1: He doesn’t want to!

Practically perfect reason #2: He already did a bunch of counting yesterday!

And perfectly obvious reason #3: He has THINGS to do! Also, counting is for the birds!

Do YOU think The Pigeon will count to ten? (Don’t count on it!)

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Mo Willems comes this funny and engaging numbers and counting early-learning concept board book with touch and trace numbers and art throughout. The Pigeon Won’t Count to 10! is the first in a collection of original Pigeon board books and is a perfect addition for babies and toddlers to The Pigeon series.
