Publisher Description: A hilarious picture book about surviving the school bus and the first day of school. * "Outrageously humorous." --School Library Journal, starred review * "Worthy of being shelved next to Jon Scieszka's funniest." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review Kyle is dreading his first trip on the school bus. Luckily, his big brother, James, is a school-bus expert. James gives Kyle ten rules for riding the bus that he absolutely, positively must obey if he wants to avoid getting laughed at, yelled at, pushed around, or even pounded. On his fateful first ride, Kyle struggles to remember and follow each of his brother's rules, but along the way, he learns the school bus isn't so bad after all--and he may even have a thing or two to teach his brother. |
