The Bus Is For Us - Couverture rigide

In pleasing little rhymes, this gem of a book pays tribute to all kinds of rides.
—The New York Times

Rosen's rhyming text has a relaxed, unforced feel, and his story is a nice mix of the practical and the fanciful. Tyler's warm watercolors add a dreamy layer of imagination to the story. A lovely treatment of a perennially popular topic.
—Kirkus Reviews

Nicely varied, the verse is well attuned to preschoolers’ interests, while Tyler’s large-scale, sweeping scenes offer details for kids to discover and enjoy. An enjoyable journey for the younger set.
—Booklist

The watercolor illustrations, done in pastel colors with round lines and swirly, dreamlike backgrounds, keep the scenes soft and inviting. This gentle but spirited ride is designed to please even the youngest listeners.
—School Library Journal
