(3) K-3 Illustrated by Kass Reich. In this entertaining and elucidating story, some city pigeons are tired of being dumped on by humans: "They shoo us away!... No one appreciates us!" To paint humans a picture of life without pigeons, the feathered friends decide to fly the coop. Reich's art is compassionate to the cause as well as demonstrative (e.g., a sepia-toned flashback scene shows pigeons carrying messages to soldiers during wartime).
