We Live in a Bus

Together, the family and the bus share the adventures of camping under the stars and the freedom of the open air. With fun, colour-filled pages, this book reminds us to stop and marvel at the beauty around us and take joy in the simple act of being outdoors. Petzold brings together a light but detailed style of illustrations, making rereading an experience full of new finds - a necessary aspect when your little one inevitably asks to hear it again. – Lili Reus-Smit * Readings *You can’t help butfeel the pleasure this family experience as they are free to experience the world around them, meeting people like them who are also free and travelling for a week, a month or even a year. With fun illustrations that exude humour, it feels joyful to be with them as they look at the ‘small things, the big things, and all the things in-between’. I’m going to buy a bus. – Emily RossWe Live in a Bus would make a hugely enjoyable ‘read-aloud’ for early primary aged readers. It is informative, engaging and entertaining. – Russ Merrin * Magpies Magazine *
