(3) K-3 A little boy named Pax daily feeds a pigeon, Blue. Pax feels terrible when his mom rushes him past Blue one day, but the bird follows him onto the subway and they are happily reunited. The cartoon-style mixed-media illustrations help punch up the funny responses of the people (who unaccountably all appear to be white) on the subway. Good for talking about feelings and explaining empathy.
