Editorial Reviews

Riding the school bus never looked so cool as in this sleek, modern board book by Caldecott Award winner Donald Crews. Depicting what school buses do in a day, School Bus shows empty yellow buses making their way across the city to pick up children and later making the return trip to bring them home. Thin lines and an abundant use of school-bus yellow give us the feeling of motion and safety in Crews's ode to these familiar vehicles, while bright splashes of color for the people and bold type fonts convey an urban atmosphere. While not packed with specifics about buses, this artful eye-pleaser is perfectly aimed at "the buses, the riders, and the watchers."
