The Magic School Bus Explores the Senses

I bought this and two other Magic School Bus books to complete the set that my own kids enjoyed. I am now FaceTime interacting with my kindergarten age grandson weekly while his mom and dad work from home. He loves the colorful pictures and fun information in these books. He also enjoys reading the speech bubbles and shorter info bits that are found here. It’s fun science!

Excellent condition

I bought this book as a gift for my four-year-old grandson's birthday. I don't think it has spent a single day since that time four months ago that it hasn't been carried around and studied. And since his five-year-old older brother can already read, it's been a bunch of times that I've come across both of them, studying the pages closely, the older brother reading text or dialog bubbles aloud and both of them giggling with delight at the antics going on.They love to inform me of facts about the five senses, all of which they've learned from reading this book. But who cares about learning when you're four or five years old? All they know is that it's hilarious and...well...magical! Just like the other magical schoolbus books they love.

This is a great, almost un American book in that kids are told that it's OK, even wonderful and wondrous to be science geeks, be curious. Love the Frizz when she says "take chances, get messy, make mistakes," and encourages her students to explore. In a society that elevates sports and violence for boys, and beauty and cattiness for girls, this series stands out for encouraging gender neutral intellectualism and academic achievement. My geeky 5 year old can't get enough, having finally found fictional characters that reflect her and encourage her. Factual substance-wise, I as a 40 year old have learned tons.

Good series. My 6 year old is fascinated by The Magic School Bus tv shows and she loves to have the books for me to read her before bed. I like that they are so educational instead of all the foo-foo crap for girls out there. It teaches her how to use her brain, not just dress in sparkles and glitter and wear ridiculously fancy and immodest clothes.

My kids and I enjoy the magic school bus storyline books. Each book has so much information on each page! These are great educational books.

Great book, arrived on time.

Love, love, love these books!!! We have been reading these books to my daughter since she was 3 years old because she is curious and asks questions about everything! Each book has great detail and information about the topic of that book. The characters make learning about science fun and exciting! Definitely not a bedtime book because the books generate even more questions from your child. Great way to encourage interest in science! My wife and I have even learned from reading these books to our daughter.
