Product Description

Once again, Ms. Frizzle gets her class right in the "thick" of things--this time, they're right in the thick ooze of an underwater volcano's magma chamber! As Arnold and Carlos watch from a raft above, the Magic School Bus "erupts" with the magma and lava, and lands atop a brand-new island!

There are now more than 58 million Magic School Bus books in print, in a variety of formats, plus a wildly successful animated television series. Called "a can’t-miss team" by School Library Journal, Cole and Degen live in Florida and Connecticut, respectively.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not an original "Magic School Bus" book, January 20, 2006
By H. Kramer (Olympia, WA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book was extremely disappointing. It is not written or illustrated by the creators of the Magic School Bus series and it is obvious from page one. There are none of the informative side bars (papers, etc. "written" by the kids in the story) and the information is not as complete. This alone makes the book less appealing than the originals, but to top it off, the children in the book bicker and compete with each other and are not supportive or respectful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Great Magic School Bus book!!!, April 25, 2005
Both my kids loved this book and learned a lot about volcanos.
I read this to my oldest years ago and now my youngest (age 4 1/2) loves it - along with all the other MSB books!

I was disappointed in this book. My son and I have truly enjoyed the other books in the Magic School Bus series. They are educational and entertaining. Read more
