ANIMATED THE PIGEON FINDS A HOT DOG!

When Pigeon finds a delicious hot dog, he can’t wait to devour it. But then along comes a sly duckling who wants a bite. Who will be the more clever bird? Narrated by Mo and Trixie Willems with animation by Pete List.

An ALA Notable Video.

Booklist: Starred Review "The manic feathered star of the 2010 Carnegie Medal winner Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! returns in this delightful, fast-paced animated sequel. Clever sound effects fill the air as Pigeon swings from euphoria to exasperation...and ultimately to a climatic, screen-splitting tantrum...Triumphant strains of clarinet music play when (Pigeon) finally agrees to share the hot dog with his new buddy...(DVD) includes some wonderful sequences not found in the book... Don't miss the enlightening extra in which the director and animator...discusses and demonstrates the eight-step process of animating this film. Kids will love seeing Willems perform...and Pigeon's many fans will savor this tasty treat..."
