(2) K-3 Magic School Bus series. Illustrated by Bruce Degen. In the magic school bus (temporarily a plane), Ms. Frizzle's class gathers information for a play about climate change. Cole and Degen are straightforward about the seriousness of global warming but eschew gloom and doom, focusing on day-to-day changes individuals can make. Prolific sidebars provide background information, deepening the discussion and empowering the book's audience. Throughout, humor keeps readers engaged.
