Shows and Tells is a Magic School Bus TV tie-in book that's based on the episode of the same name.
Plot[]
Ms. Frizzle's class is in a show-and-tell contest. Arnold brings in a strange old object - an artifact - to show. But since nobody knows what it is, there's nothing to tell! Where did it come from? And what does it do? That's just what Ms. Frizzle's class tries to find out - just like real archaeologists. Using clues from the artifact, the kids make educated guesses about its uses. And to help them test their guesses, the Friz turns the bus into a magical time-traveling Suppose-a-Tron! This is one archaeological adventure you'll really discover!
Differences from TV Show[]
