"We sing about the wheels on the bus and mimic the choo-choo of trains before we can even fathom the benefits these offer to our health, cities, and the climate. This engaging manner of familiarizing children with the history and future of mobility thrills us! And we must admit, we learned an exciting thing or two along the way. Hoping to see the coming generations on "Public Transportation!"

It is important that the future leaders of our world understand its history and integral role in building and sustaining communities. I can't wait to read this book with my four-year-old granddaughter so we can talk about using and supporting public transportation systems."
