What a great idea for a program. At Menomonie Public Library’s regularly scheduled storytime, they had a super-cool visitor a few weeks ago–a school bus! Says Debbie,
The 17 boys and 3 girls loved their “field trip” (to the parking lot where the bus was parked!)
Climb on, sit on a seat, say hi to Mr. Tom, then climb back down the BIG steps (only 1 little boy put up a fuss when it was time to get off-had to be carried off), then watch the flashers and stop sign turn on. Then Mr. Tom started the engine to drive away…ears got covered. We made their day.
