About This Book
Reach for this book when your toddler starts pointing excitedly at the big yellow buses in your neighborhood or when the first-day-of-school jitters begin to surface. This chunky, toy-like board book transforms the intimidating concept of school into a friendly, manageable adventure filled with cheerful bunny characters. It uses the familiar environment of a bus to introduce foundational concepts like the alphabet and counting from one to ten. Designed for children aged 1 to 4, this book is more than a story: it is a tactile experience. Parents will appreciate how the die-cut shape and movable parts encourage fine motor skills while the rhyming text builds early literacy. It serves as a gentle bridge between home and the classroom, focusing on the joy of belonging and the fun of learning in a group setting. It is the perfect choice for making 'big kid' milestones feel exciting rather than overwhelming.
