Summary of Story:
“Ride along in this heartwarming back to school picture book about bravery and facing first day jitters!
The Little Yellow Bus had prepared for this day for a long time and how great it would be to pick up children and drive them to their school building―all by himself! Yellow wanted to feel excited, but instead, he was filled with first day worries. With a little help and encouragement from Mom and Dad, Little Yellow takes a deep breath, starts his engine, and decides that it’s time to prove to himself that he can be brave.
Little Yellow Bus is the heartwarming reminder that sometimes even the days when we are scared and anxious can become the most wonderful adventure, if we only believe in ourselves. Filled with beautiful full-color illustrations and an inspiring message for kids, this timeless story about courage is one you will want to come back to again and again.”

Here is a bit of a summary:
Do your children realize they have one of life’s greatest gifts, the ability to make choices that determine how their day will go?
Life can be rough. We can’t always control what will happen, but we can always decide how to respond.
When we teach kids that they can choose their reactions, it shifts everything! By choosing positive actions, kids feel happier and build lifelong healthy habits.
No more “I can’t, I don’t know, or I’m not!” My Magical Choices presents 13 “I choose” statements that empower children to take responsibility for their days, inspire them to use conscious language, be calm, forgiving, brave, honest, friendly, and much more.
