Reviews
- "I loved reading the book!" - Louis Theroux
- "Our favourite book is a really funny book called Peggy the Always Sorry Pigeon. She always says sorry and one day she meets a seagull, and the seagull says 'stand up for yourself' and then she goes everywhere shouting funny things at everyone". - Greta aged 5 and Flo aged 3, BBC Radio 4 Today Children's Book Club
- "The text is a timely reminder of the power of facing up to bullies...Readers will want to absorb the state of play through the pictures on each spread before turning the page to find out how the story pans out." - Books for Keeps
- "A gentle, humourous look at being a bit more assertive. Beautifully illustrated by Saldaña in a mix of water colour and pencil - but it is the textures that she introduces into the pictures which add an extra interest and depth to all the spreads." - Love Reading 4 Kids
- "This hilarious tale from award-winning author Wendy Meddour contains an important message about the importance of being assertive. Carmen Saldana's illustrations are full of personality and humour." - Books for Topics
- "Wendy Meddour's tale of learning to stand up for yourself, supportiveness and friendship is an empowering story to share with young listeners who will love the opportunity to emulate Peggy's retorts..." - Jill Bennett, Red Reading Hub
- "A delightful story all about learning to stand up for yourself, Meddour and Saldana's picture book features a perpetually apologetic - and frequently bullied - pigeon." - Waterstones
