Bus 719

Beschreibung

Step aboard Bus 719 and journey through the eyes of Dominique, a spirited little girl whose imagination transforms a simple school bus ride into something truly magical. In a world where strangers once greeted each other with ease and bus drivers looked out for every child on board, Bus 719 offers a gentle, heartwarming return to the Caribbean. Bursting with charm, laughter, and everyday wonder, this chapter book invites readers to slow down, look up, and rediscover the beauty in shared moments and small connections. It is sweet, imaginative, and rich with nostalgic Caribbean warmth.
