"A fun story that follows the first episode of the first season of MSB pretty closely, but the extra factual information/dialogue in the margins make it hard to read to ages 4-6 (especially if they suspect you're leaving something out!). It might be more enjoyable for ages 9-10, who can benefit from that info and can read at their leisure."

I read these books to our kids or in their mid to late thirties. Ms. Frizzle is still exciting and takes you to incredible places where you can't go normally. I love the science and exploration that it takes 5 and 7-year-olds. I love the magic School bus
