Many children take the bus to school every day. To ensure a safe ride, there are rules they need to follow. One of the most important rules is to listen to the bus driver. It's important to stay seated and wait until the driver tells the riders it's OKAY to get up. Riders need to stay quiet so they don't distract the driver. The driver also uses hand signals as kids enter or exit the bus to let them know when to cross the street. This must-have book teaches readers that bus safety depends on listening to the bus driver. Colorful photographs provide readers with close textual correlations.
