Over dit e-boek

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

With stunning illustrations and an inspiring, universal message, The Yellow Bus from #1 New York Times bestselling Loren Long is a tender and hopeful modern classic -- the perfect choice for holiday gift-giving that will bring joy to every bookshelf.


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.

With stirring black-and-white artwork and powerful pops of color, The Yellow Bus is a story that spans generations with an enduring and poignant message about new beginnings, happiness, and hope. Perfect for fans of Oh, The Places You'll Go and The Wonderful Things You Will Be, this beautifully-illustrated tale celebrates the winding road of life with warmth and wonder.

Praise for The Yellow Bus:

“With shades of The Giving Tree — its sweep and bittersweetness, but none of the greed — The Yellow Bus emphasizes service over self sacrifice. It functions as a sweet and speedy bedtime story, but a peek under the hood reveals a powerful engine.” –The New York Times Book Review

★ "A must-purchase, this book will leave readers looking at objects around them differently long after its covers are closed." — School Library Journal, starred review

★ "A moving contemplation on the passage of time, The Yellow Bus skillfully drives home the joys of a well-lived life of purpose." — Booklist, starred review

★ "All kids will benefit from the added introspection of the seemingly mundane in the world around them." — BCCB, starred review
