Collins Big Cat - Brave Bus Driver: Band 13/Topaz

“Roll double six or double three, let’s learn about your history.”

Join Aniyah, EJ and Olivia as they play their Ludi board game and are transported to another action-packed adventure back in time, helping real people from history and solving exciting mysteries along the way.

Aniyah, EJ and Olivia have been transported back in time! It’s all aboard a 1910 London bus for a trip around the city, but then the fog descends, and a horse appears out of the darkness. Can the trio help bus driver Joe Clough save the day?

This exciting book is one of several action-packed adventure stories from Black history, written and illustrated by Nadine Cowan.

Topaz/Band 13 books offer longer and more demanding reads for children to investigate and evaluate.

Pages 30 and 31 allow children to re-visit the content of the book, supporting comprehension skills, vocabulary development and recall.

Ideas for reading in the back of the book provide practical support and stimulating activities.
