This book is a cute story for students to learn about animals and their sounds. It is a nice book to sing along. It helps students learn more about the animals around them. (

The students can sing along and add new animals onto the bus at each stop. (

To the tune of wheels on the bus the story can be a good way for kids to practice retelling a story. Each stop a new animal is added onto the bus making a new noise. (

The Seals on the Bus by Hort_ Lenny - Karas_ G. Brian
Cute children's story about all kinds of animals and how their sounds and actions in the bus make them go all around the town.
Children will like learning what sounds the animals make.
I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device). (

Book description

The preschool children love this musical picture book. I love introducing this book because it is a different variation than the one they already know, and the children love to learn something new, but yet provides them with Familiarity at the same time. It also provide that ryhming and repetition that preK children really like.
