The Magic School Bus: Blows Its Top

A new entry in the popular Scholastic series, Ms. Frizzle and her class ride the Magic School Bus on a journey to the center of the earth (ok, maybe not quite that far) to learn about undersea volcanoes. Slick writing, strong plugs for reading, and the recent TV debut of the series make this and a second new title, Going Batty, good choices. Recommended. Aud: K, E, P. (R. Pitman)
