I am teaching my son about conservation, and this book will be a great way to expand on his knowledge of fossil fuel emissions. Thanks, SD!

Even if you're too brainwashed to accept that CO2 is causing climate change, I would hope at a bare minimum everyone agrees that literal soot is bad for your health.

At what point did you think that these books would try to teach children anything but nature, science, and conservation? Would you have preferred that Ms. Frizzle teach her children to bypass EPA exhaust regulations or use the Magic School Bus to roll coal on people riding bikes?

We'll see if they send me a class set of twenty.

I have more students than that, but that was the max. I'll save them for a day with low attendance and pass them out then.

Maybe ask [email protected] if you can get extra for a class?

Well. I guess all those adventures were just acid trips. Here's hoping they can stay clean. Ms. Frizzle is a bad influence and an enabler.

Is this book banned in California since the bus isn't an EV?

Yet another sad day for humankind when grown, "educated adults" are too busy arguing their political beliefs to understand that:

1. This is a children's book, intended for entertainment and educational purposes, from that of a collection that I'm willing to bet most of the commentors have read when they were small children.

2. Those who complain about how ridiculous the "deals" have gotten on SD are actually getting something you can hold in your grubby hands for the low, low price of free-99 and are STILL complaining.

3. Nobody cares about your political beliefs, because you either agree with the beliefs those whom you are arguing with, or you're just plain wrong in every single way, and are a garbage human.

I for one choose to take advantage of this deal and grab a book for my child, supply my local little libraries and maybe distribute some of these to the local schools that would greatly appreciate a free, shiny new book, while you continue to argue your own political beliefs amongst yourselves. Thanks OP and repped!

Anyone else getting sick and tired of Slickdeals becoming a place for political commentary from Fox and CNN? Comments used to be helpful or at least entertaining on here. Now they're sad.

As far as the deal goes, it's free and if it's something you want for your kid knock yourself out. Others skip and get in with your lives. Geez.

It's a free book, no need to call anyone who disagrees with you brainwashed.

It's a free book, and it's probably worth what you pay for it.
