What is The Pigeon Needs A Bath! about?
The Pigeon is absolutely filthy, but he insists he doesn't need a bath. He tries every excuse to avoid it, claiming he's clean enough and that baths are unnecessary. Even when flies start avoiding him due to his stench, he remains stubborn. Eventually, he reluctantly agrees to take a bath and discovers it's not so bad after all—it's actually quite fun! This humorous tale captures the classic struggle of bath time, making it relatable and entertaining for young readers.
