School is about to start here in our neck of the woods. Both of my girls are going to school this year and I am mixed with all kinds of emotions. To help my youngest with this whole new school routine, we were sent the book I’m Your Bus by Marilyn Singer.
L my youngest was very intrigued with the illustration in the book. The book gets you ready for a rip-roaring, rhyming ride that celebrates all things drivin’ with a special spotlight on a kid’s four-wheeled best buddy–his school bus! When you’re a kid, your school bus can be your very best friend. Morning, noon, and nighttime, too, that golden buddy is at your service. Ready to drive you and your friends to and from school!
I definitely recommend it for the 4 to 7 age group of children just entering into the all new elementary school world. I have two excerpts from the book so you can see for yourself too ๐
If you would like to purchase this book for the special child in your life, just go here :). Also, to help you get excited about “Back to School” we are offering some giveaways!

The book looks great!
I would use the book for my 5 year old who is going to K this fall, and riding the bus for the first time.
I would use the GC to Gymboree (my fav store) to get both my girls something cute to wear to school. If I play my cards right, I’ll but 2 outfits on sale and hopefully get some Gymbucks to buy some soft cotton PJs for cold fall nights. ๐
Cindy says
This would be a great book for Chandler as he gets older and I can always use the clothes for the boys!
Thanks for a great giveaway!

I would love to win this book for my son who is entering K this year and will be riding the bus! I was downsized last year, so it would be a rare treat to be able to afford to shop at Gymboree again. I love their clothes. I’ve tweeted @creativebug and posted to my facebook!

I love the illustration of this book. Very cute! It’s really meant for kids. But even I, a very old lady (LOL) loved it. ๐
Not really here to win the book. But I wish everyone good luck! ๐

I love Gymboree-and who couldn’t use more clothes? My twins start 1st grade and need some non-stained outfits for sure. And we read tons. This cute book looks like just right to practice their reading skills.

My son’s going back to preschool so he won’t be on the school bus, so we’d save the book for another year. I’d use the Gymbo gc towards nice outfits for Thanksgiving for the kiddos.
