Why read it?

1 author picked The Magic Bus as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This is a unique and unexpected story of a school bus that can take its child passengers anywhere in the world by simply pressing a button on the dashboard. It seems to suggest one can really go anywhere with one’s imagination, particularly when one is absorbed in a book. Gergely illustrated other books about inanimate objects including The Little Red Caboose, Tootle, The Taxi That Hurried, and Scruffy the Tugboat.
