This is the best book on concrete poems I have ever seen. The poems are hilarious, and I wish I would have had it when I taught 7th grade English. Kids will love it!

This was a very fun book to read. I love the illustrations in it. This book is good for those kids who might be riding the school bus or doing something new for the first time. There is all these "rules" you should follow and people might make things sound scary but it is never as scary when you actually do it. Also, speaking up may help sometimes.

Window for kids maybe a mirror though

This book is wonderful, Kyle is dreading his first trip on the school bus. So his big brother gave him some rules to follow while riding the bus. At the end he realized that he did not need rules to ride the bus. This book will be good for English classes for writing a book report, or determining the main character of a story. I enjoyed reading this book to my grandsons and they agreed with Kyle that riding the school bus was not so bad after all.
