The Magic School Bus and the Climate Challenge

The Magic School Bus and the Climate Challenge

by Joanna Cole Illustrated by Bruce Degen

When it's time to make sense of science, turn to Ms. Frizzle! Global warming is the science story of the century, and it will affect the younger generations the most. So why not turn to the teacher kids like the most, Ms. Frizzle!

Only the Friz can boil all the hoopla down to the scientific facts in a fun and informative way. With trademark simplicity and wit, Joanna Cole explains why the earth is getting warmer, and Bruce Degen's bright, action-filled illustrations make the science easy to understand — and fun to learn. This team brings a new, improved understanding to climate change, engaging kids and empowering all.

Parents and teachers will cheer! Kids already love the Magic School Bus, and they love to do what's right by the planet.

At last, a way to teach the curriculum and make an impact!
