The Wheels on the Bus Video: Mango and Papaya's Animal Adventure

The wheels on the bus go round and round…and round in this adaptation of the perennial toddler favorite. Trying to find their way home, puppets Mango and Papaya ride a bus driven by Argon the Dragon (voiced by Roger Daltrey) and visit an aquarium and farm before reaching the zoo where they live. A Parents' Choice Silver Honor Award winner, this production includes four new songs in addition to the title piece. A couple of flaws: my three-year-old son pointed out that buses don't use gasoline as stated in one song (“they drink diesel”), and a cow that exited the bus several scenes earlier suddenly reappears (can you say “continuity error”?). A better version overall than the British import The Wheels on the Bus (VL-1/04), this is recommended. Aud: K, P. (R. Reagan)
