Patience pays off for Leo and his sisters as they wait for the right bus to take them to the park!

Leo and his family are waiting for the bus, but each one that passes just isn't the right bus for them. First, a red bus filled with a hen, a cow, a duck, a goat, and a horse, and driven by a sheep, goes by, bound for the farm.

Next, a yellow bus jam-packed with fish, sharks, and octopuses passes on its way to the aquarium. When will a bus for people come by?

And, in the end, patience pays off for Leo and his family as the bus arrives to take them to the park.

Questions for discussion and labelled parts of a bus are provided to encourage further conversation.
