About the Book



"There are bunnies on the bus, and they're causing mayhem in Sunny Town! Watch as they whiz past the bus stop, fly by the swings, and zoom over the crosswalk -- these bunnies aren't stopping for anyone. They finally reach the station, but where are they hopping off to now? Uh-oh . . ."--



Book Synopsis



A romping, riotous read-aloud from best-selling author Philip Ardagh and award-winning illustrator Ben Mantle

Bunnies on the bus!
Bunnies on the bus!
No wonder there's a fuss
about the bunnies on the bus!

There are bunnies on the bus, and they're causing mayhem in Sunny Town! Watch as they whiz past the bus stop, fly by the swings, and zoom over the crosswalk -- these bunnies aren't stopping for anyone. They finally reach the station, but where are they hopping off to now? Uh-oh . . . Acclaimed author Philip Ardagh's rhyming, high-energy text and "Bunnies on the bus!" refrain is ideal for library or classroom read-alouds, and Ben Mantle's colorful illustrations are chock-full of zany details perfect for repeat reads.



Review Quotes




Repetitive phrasing in the rhyming verses adds to the frenzied atmosphere that quickly ensues...The illustrations alone will keep readers occupied for hours.
--Kirkus Reviews

Digitized colored pencil pictures, rendered in deep pastels, bring to mind a pepped-up vintage Little Golden Book. Keen-eyed readers will spot other madcap moments, including a police chase, occurring alongside the rabbits' romp.
--Publishers Weekly

The riotous illustrations--digitally manipulated pencil drawings--are brimming with action, colorful details, and rambunctious fun. This rollicking picture book is best read aloud one-on-one, as kids will want to turn the pages back and forth repeatedly as they search for specific characters in different illustrations. It's a cautionary tale: if bunnies board your bus, expect pandemonium.
--Booklist Online

Oh No, Bunnies on the Bus!

Get ready for some hilarity. The bunnies are back, and this time they have taken over a bus. As they zoom through the town, they ignore the bus stops, even though passengers are waiting. The animals at the bus stop are so flustered by the bus, they throw their packages in the air. Everywhere the bunnies go, they leave mayhem in their wake. This is such a fun book. Children will giggle at the story. The illustrations will make everyone laugh harder. To make it even better, the story is done in rhyming verse. Sharp eyes will notice there is also a story taking place that involves two burglars that keep crossing paths with the bunnies. I highly recommend this book. Big and little ones alike will have a good time with this funny book. Ages two through five will like this. Depending on the child, even older children could have a good time with this. Thank you, Candlewick Books, for providing Tickmenot with a book to review. Opinions are my own.

Hilarious & adorable!

Cute & silly rhyming book. My 2.5 y/o grandson loved it so much, he asked me to read it 3 times the day I gifted it to him! And then he asked his Daddy to read it at bedtime.

Kids love it

The storyline is very simple, but the kids think this book is hilarious. Personally I think the pictures are what makes this book so great. There are so many details in the pictures that expand the story beyond what is written.
