The Magic School Bus was a series of children's books intended to teach scientific concepts to children. The books feature the exploits of Ms. Frizzle and her class of students at Walkerville Elementary School who board a magical school bus which takes them on educational adventures to space, under the Earth, into the human body, or to other such locations. The books were written in the first person from the point of view of an unnamed student in the Friz's class.

Synopsis:

We never know what's going to happen when we get on that bus, but we do know that we'll learn about Ms. Frizzle's favorite subject-science!

When Ms. Frizzle ordered skeleton costumes for us, some of the bones were missing. We headed for the Hugh Mann Costume Company to look for them. There, we learned why we need our skeletons, what different bones are for, and what makes them grow. But why was that strange skeleton following us? In this book, I tell you everything that happened on that trip, the time we went on The Search for the Missing Bone...
