The Seals on the Bus

by Lenny Hort

The Seals on the Bus Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

An animal-filled version of the classic children's song "The Wheels on the Bus"

"The seals on the bus go "errp, errp, errp"

All through the town."

Two children and their parents board a city bus on their way to a party. At the next stop, who should get on but a group of seals, who holler "errp, errp, errp" at the top of their lungs. Each time the bus stops a new kind of animal joins the passengers and adds to the din, to the children's delight and the parents' annoyance. But when several hissing skunks want to come aboard, even the children cry "help! help! help!"

This hilarious new version of the beloved children's song "The Wheels on the Bus" will have young readers errping and roaring and honking along.

We found this at the library a while back and my girls loved it. I'm finally remembering to buy our own copy!

It's such a cute simple book but one that toddlers and preschooler find more relevant; mine know animal noises much better than anything a bus driver would say. It also sticks in your head a bit, helping me, at least, with late night lullabies for grumpy babies.
