Children talk about the kinds of travel they prefer, including bicycles, cars, boats, and planes. Their lively rhyming discussion eventually favors the bus as a ride everyone can share. The journey is pictured with soft watercolor art. The book’s repeated refrain returns to the idea that the bus belongs to everyone. The children are exuberant as they compare their choices.
