Get a free copy of "The Magic School Bus Gets Cleaned Up" for your child


The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Clean School Bus USA program has partnered with Scholastic to write, illustrate, and publish a new book in the popular "Magic School Bus" children’s series. In this series of books and videos for children from kindergarten through fourth grade, a teacher named Ms. Frizzle takes her class on several science-oriented field trips, riding in their magical school bus.

This is a fun way for children to learn as they, and Ms. Frizzle, explore the pollution emitted from their own diesel school bus and figure out how to reduce the emissions as they find themselves traveling through a diesel engine.

From idle reduction to ways the community can help reduce the health risks from diesel exhaust, the kids learn to the end of the book when the "Magic School Bus" gets its own pollution control device, a diesel particulate-matter filter.

Real Magic School Bus Gets a Retrofit

Based on the magical yellow school bus of the "Magic School Bus" children's series, Scholastic operates a real traveling science laboratory housed in a yellow school bus. The bus tours the United States, offering hands-on science lessons to children at schools, fairs, and other community events.

Similar to the storyline in “The Magic School Bus Gets Cleaned Up,” this traveling bus was retrofitted with a diesel particulate filter. With the filter on the engine exhaust system, particulate matter will be reduced by up to 90%.
