Double~Decker Playbus ~ Colouring Book by Sue Wickstead

Great activity book with lots of buses to colour in, along with some great facts about the Playbus

Kids will love this, especially those who love bright double-decker buses. We are looking forward to colouring in Daisy Daydream with her beautiful nursery rhyme images on the side.

Transport fans will enjoy the facts within the pages. We are told how some Double Decker Buses were re-purposed into a special Playbus to give children a safe space to play and have fun. Hours of activities for kids and bus lovers. There is even a space at the end of the book for you to create and name your very own Playbus.

For colouring inspiration there are also lots of storybooks to read and copy the colours from. Look out for Daisy Daydream she is our favourite. All very highly recommended.

Inside the Book

Here are a couple of pages from inside the book ‘Sparky the Dragon’ as you can see we made a start on colouring the bus.

About Sue Wickstead ~ a work of heart

I am a teacher and a children’s author..

For over 20 years, alongside my teaching career, I worked with a Childrenā€™s Charity, The Bewbush Playbus Association, which led me to write a photographic history book about it.

I soon found that many children had never been on a bus before, let alone a ā€˜Playbusā€™ and they wanted to know more, so I decided to write a fictional tale about the first bus, his number plate JJK261 gave him his name.

ā€˜Jay-Jay the Supersonic Busā€™ came out in print in 2014. From Fact to fiction the bus journey continues with more stories written and on their way.

In my role as a Teacher I have been able to share the story with many children. I leave a copy of the first book, ‘Jay-Jay the Supersonic Bus’, in each School that I visit.

The first picture book has led to further bus related stories. Each book has a bus connections as well as links to my teaching career.

Talking Animals

I was first introduced to the My Talking Pet App some years back by my wonderful friend Deb McEwan author and dog lover. It was so much fun to see her beloved rescue dog Sandy telling us all about the new book she features in ‘The Island Dog Squad’ it was a barrel of laughs. I simply had to download the app for my phone.

Now Miss Ruby Heart uses the app to tell us all about her mini book reviews and her friends have joined in to share a few jokes and funnies. We hope you enjoy them.

If you have any jokes drop them below in the comments, and we will see if one of Ruby’s talking animal friends can read it out for you. Don’t forget the pages are aimed at children and younger readers, or those simply young at heart. Clean jokes only please.

Ten Little Dogs by Ruth Brown

Oh, how cute is this charming counting book for children featuring ‘Ten Little Dogs’ written and illustrated by Ruth Brown. Read the review below from Get Kids into Books.

getkidsintobooks's avatarGet Kids into Books

Published by Scallywag Press, 2021.

Ten Little Dogs is a beautifully illustrated count-down book featuring ten utterly gorgeous puppies. We see them at play, enjoying a meal, and having a snooze. They are adventurous and inquisitive, mischievous and full of boundless energy. There are all sorts of breeds and Sam and I had lots of fun choosing our favourite pups.

As the book counts down from ten to one, it introduces the concept of one less. The clever use of rhyme and page turn will help children guess then learn which number comes next. Each page has a spot the difference element too as you look to see which dog is missing.

The book is lots of fun because of the puppiesā€™ playful antics. We frequently see them getting into trouble: they are chased by bees, drenched by a hose and one even gets stuck between two trees.
