The Bus Capades of Mrs. Chris

By Merideth Elder

When seven-year-old Lilly moves to a small Arkansas town with her mom, she's nervous about starting second grade in a new school---until she meets Mrs. Chris, the eccentric and unforgettable school bus driver with pencil-shaped shoes and a heart full of surprises.

What begins as a simple ride home becomes a series of wild adventures. From dragging fallen trees with the bus to rescuing runaway dogs and discovering lost jewelry, Lilly's stories leave her mom both entertained and alarmed. But when a chainsaw enters the picture, Mom decides it's time to find out the truth about Mrs. Chris.

What she discovers is more than she expected---a woman full of resilience, kindness, and a touch of chaos, whose unlikely friendship changes everything.

Spanning from childhood to graduation, The Bus Capades of Mrs. Chris is a heartwarming tale about community, trust, and the unexpected ways people become family. But as Mrs. Chris nears retirement and Lilly faces a future beyond high school, one question lingers: what happens when the bus finally stops?
