Plot[]
Ms. Frizzle's class has to create a project for the school science fair. But they need the perfect idea! When Keesha brings an ant to the classroom, the kids decide to make a movie about ants. They'll make Keesha's ant a star! But Keesha's ant disappears, and the kids have no choice but to follow...all the way into an anthill. And surprise! The anthill is crawling with activity! Come along a zany field trip and learn how ants work together, just like Ms. Frizzle's class.
