    Synopsis

    The field trip to the planetarium is foiled when the museum turns out to be closed, but Ms. Frizzle saves the day. The Magic School Bus turns into a spaceship and takes the class on a trip zooming through the atmosphere, to the Moon, and beyond! With up-to-date facts about the solar system, revised for this edition.

    Annotation

    On a special field trip in the magic school bus, Ms. Frizzle's class goes into outer space and visits each planet in the solar system.

    Publishers Weekly

    Cole and Degen have already escorted young readers on three enlightening, boisterous rides on the magic school bus--in explorations of the human body, waterworks and the inside of the Earth. This latest expedition, on which the energetic Miss Frizzle offers a tour of the planets, should not be missed. When a closed planetarium disappoints her students on a class trip, the likable teacher saves the day. She manages to launch her rickety school bus into space and steers it around the solar system, visiting the moon, the sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars before an asteroid knocks out one of the taillights. When Miss Frizzle leaves the bus to investigate, she gets lost in space, and the students visit the outer planets without her. They reconnect with her eventually, and the group ends up back in the classroom, making a chart and a mobile based on their discoveries. Once again, author and illustrator let readers laugh while they learn in an animated, fact-filled adventure. Ages 6-9. (Oct.)

    August 06, 2000: I really like all my Magic School Bus Books. I liked traveling to all the planets and learning. The book doesn?t have any newer facts about space. I also bought the Arty the Part-Time Astronaut Book with CD. It was fun to play games using the CD and also on the website. Using these two books I learned everything about space I needed to know for school.
