The Bats on the Bus

A school bus full of monsters can't wait to celebrate Halloween in this spooktacular picture book adaptation of a classic nursery rhyme.

When Halloween tricksters gather after dusk, they sing "The Wheels on the Bus" in order to cause a fright. Featuring a cast of silly monsters who aren't quite what they seem--including witches who scream where's my broom!, ghosts who shout boo!, and skeleton bones that go clankety clank!--this spooky-fun reimagining of the beloved nursery rhyme will have little ones squealing with delight as they chant all around the town!
