Table of ContentsReviewsIn this very basic primer children learn how they should conduct themselves safely when using the school bus. Most of the suggestions are what one would expect: wait for the bus with others, cross the street in front of the bus not behind it, hold onto the handrail when getting on and off the bus, etc. It tells children not to disturb the driver with loud noises but to stay quietly in their seats and keep their heads and arms inside the bus. For low-key entertainment, it describes how to play an Alphabet Game. One fact that parents and teachers might not consider is that clothing and book bags with long strings are a safety hazard as they can become caught in the door when a child enters or exits the bus. There are photos of children and school buses to illustrate the individual safety points, as well as to reassure kids who may be intimidated by the whole idea of riding the bus. At the back of the book, there is a short list of books and Internet sites for anyone who wants to pursue the topic further, plus a short index.
