Wonderful imaginative book with great photos
Fantastic book. Very imaginative and the photos are great. A definite for all children, bus lovers or not. A fun story for children but adults will also love reading it.

Great book for little imaginations
My 2 year old loves this book - he excitedly tells the story to himself as he turns the pages! It has really captured his imagination- maybe because the pictures are real and something he can relate to. We’ve set up a few of the scenes at home with our toys and he uses his own red bus to tell the story.

Even the typography plays tricks!
Naughty Bus by Jan and Jerry Oke. Here, even the typography plays tricks, mirroring the bus’s actions and finally sinking into the page as the errant toy speeds past a queue of disgruntled plastic passengers, ploughs through its owner’s dinner and plunges into the garden pond. Its witty use of photography adds to the story’s charms and makes you realise how unadventurous other picture books can be. It looks momentarily as though the last page may disappoint. Is that a bed hoving into view? But there’s a point to this tale’s end in darkness. “Sometimes,” you see, “I’m a night bus.
