Description:

An Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller
A #1 Indie Bestseller

Get ready for back-to-school season and hop on board with The Yellow Bus, #1 New York Times bestselling Loren Long's tender and hopeful modern classic about a forgotten school bus that finds happiness and purpose in the most unexpected places--and the journey along the way.

There is a bright yellow bus who spends her days driving. She loves carrying children from one important place to another. Every morning they climb in . . . Pitter-patter, pitter-patter, giggle, giggle-patter. And they fill her with joy.

As time passes, things change. The Yellow Bus gets a new driver, a new route, and new passengers, young and old. Until one day the driving stops for good, and the Yellow Bus is left on her own. And yet, no matter where she is, the Yellow Bus still finds joy and discovery in the world around her.

A poignant reflection on change and the many new beginnings life has to offer, The Yellow Bus is the perfect present for the millions heading back to school, from first-time students and returning ones, to beloved teachers and the life-long learners in all of us.
