Illustrated by
Melanie Williamson.
In this version of the much-loved song, round-faced mamis and papis, children, babies, and others cavort in a brightly painted bus "on the journey to the town." The playful acrylic, pencil, and chalk illustrations capture a vibrant Guatemalan setting. The book ends with information about Guatemala (including a paragraph on "Chicken Buses") and the musical score. An "enhanced singalong" CD is included.
