The original Big Red Reading Bus, which Childs describes as a “complete game-changer” for Madison Reading Project, has been operating since 2019.

Taha told News 3 he's been visiting the bus for about a year. "I like reading books," he said. He added that the bus is fun because kids read books, sing songs, and learn about new things.

I learned everything I know from watching television and reading books, that's it. MARTÍNEZ: Now, something else he learned in his youth may also come in handy during the Rainbow Book Bus tour.

BENTONVILLE, Ark. — Bentonville Schools’ Book Bus is back on the road, rolling into neighborhoods this summer to keep kids reading. The Book Bus tour launched at Vaughn Elementary this week.

Tickets start at $24 for Reading to Philadelphia and $45 for Reading to the airport, plus fees. More trips and more stops make this a net gain over the previous bus service.
