Part 1 The Bus Riders

What happens when a group of middle schoolers treat the school bus like more than just a ride?The Bus Riders is a powerful story about unity, respect, and becoming more than what people expect. Follow Jordan, Dre, Malik, Marcus, Jules, and others as they grow from silence and struggle to leadership and love-all from seat to seat.Through poetry, conflict, friendships, and a bus driver who sees more than she says, these riders build a code that spreads far beyond the yellow bus. With a pledge turned anthem, a beat battle turned tradition, and moments that feel too real to be fiction, this book shows how a ride to school can turn into a journey toward purpose.They're not just students.They're not just passengers.They're riders.
