Bookroo's summary

Two children and their parents board a city bus, only to be joined by a cacophony of animals. Seals, tigers, and more add their voices to the ride, delighting the kids but testing the parents' patience. As the bus fills with errping seals and roaring tigers, the noise escalates. But when hissing skunks try to join, even the children are overwhelmed. Will the bus survive this wild ride through town?

From the publisher

This hilarious new version of the beloved children’s song “The Wheels on the Bus” will have young readers errping and roaring and honking along. “The seals on the bus go “errp, errp, errp”All through the town.” Two children and their parents board a city bus on their way to a party. At the next stop, who should get on but a group of seals, who holler “errp, errp, errp” at the top of their lungs. Each time the bus stops a new kind of animal joins the passengers and adds to the din, to the children’s delight and the parents’ annoyance. But when several hissing skunks want to come aboard, even the children cry “help! help! help!”
