“The most ambitious book yet in the Magic School Bus series. Cole and Degen carry it off with their matchless combination of intelligence, style, and grade-school humor.”
— Booklist" Nice to see Joanna Cole write a new Magic School Bus book. She tackles a difficult science issue with this book and presents facts in a fun, clear and informative manner. My family loves the entire magic School Bus series. "
— Diane, 12/11/2012" One of the best books on climate change I've read in awhile. Fun, easy to understand, as are the majority of the books in this series. "
— Lynn, 6/7/2012" MSB and the Climate Challenge is mostly about global warming, which was too much for my 2 year old even though she enjoys MSB cartoons. Perhaps better for an older child learning about conservation. "
— Kendra, 5/22/2012" Students may find this book challenging to read because it has so much information on every page. They will however learn a lot about the atmosphere, solar system, conservation and much more about science. "
