Bus Stops

Brilliantly rendered drawings show the everyday events that make cities come alive.

Gomi's pictures are beautifully composed, and will appeal to children for their simplicity and to adults for their strong graphics.

"With pleasing design and a multiplicity of details to discover, this variation on the game of 'I Spy' is sure to please the youngest." — Kirkus Reviews "As a bus progresses on its route to the garage, where it will park for the night, various travelers—actors, commuters, families—hop off at their stops.

Subtext on each page challenges the reader to find objects or people sprinkled throughout the pictures
