About this listen
Long-listed, NPR Best Book of the Year, 2024
Long-listed, Amazon.com Best Books of the Year, 2024
The Yellow Bus features sound design and special effects to enhance your listening enjoyment. Listen out for the sound of children getting on the bus and bleating goats.
From #1 New York Times bestselling and beloved creator Loren Long, The Yellow Bus is a tender and heartfelt ode to educators.
There is a bright yellow bus who spends her days driving. She loves carrying children from one important place to another. But as time passes, things change: new drivers, new routes, and new passengers. Yet, no matter where she is, the Yellow Bus finds joy and discovery in the world around her—and in those she helps along the way.
The Yellow Bus is a story filled with gratitude for the teachers, mentors, coaches and many more who inspire and empower little ones every day. Perfect for fans of Dear Teacher and Because I Had a Teacher, this new classic from Loren Long is a beautiful celebration of educators and all they do.
A Macmillan Audio production from Roaring Brook Press.

What do you do with an interrupting sibling? Especially when she's stepping all over your story with wild ideas that don’t. Even. Rhyme. Knights riding rockets? Dancing pirates? Who’s ever heard of a fire-breathing armadillo?! But when this big brother realizes his sister just might be improving his yarn—and doing it with an impressive surprise of her own—it's clear what you do with an interrupting sibling. You share the narrative! Turns out adventure is way more fun when you build it together, rhyme by daring rhyme.

Buffalo Fluffalo arrives on the scene puffed up with self-importance. Stomping around and raising billows of dust, Buffalo Fluffalo proclaims his superiority to the other creatures—the ram, the prairie dog, and the crow—who just want to be his friend. So Buffalo Fluffalo, who has had enuffalo, heads off to grumble to himself. Suddenly, a rain shower pours down from the clouds and—what’s this? All of his fluffalo is a soggy mess! There Fluffalo stands, a drenched pip-squeak without his disguise.
