The Magic School Bus Explores the Senses
Cole, J. (2001). The magic school bus explores the senses. New York: Scholastic.
The Magic School Bus Explores the Senses by Joanna Cole is a fantastic informational story that many students would find intriguing. This book includes all the famous characters from the Magic School Bus tv series. The most fascinating character is Mrs. Frizzle who is a very eccentric teacher who takes her students on the best field trips. In the book The Magic School Bus Explores the Senses the assistant principal Mr. Wilde and crew go through a human eye, tongue, and dog's nose to explore the different senses. The illustrations for this book are cartoon like and a great visual to draw a young reader in. The characters even use thought and conversation bubbles to add facts and discussion to the story. This book covers all the senses which makes it a wonderful book to use to introduce the 5 senses.
