Cynthia Ritter asks
A Bus Called Heaven author/illustrator Bob Graham about the idea behind his new picture book. Read the full review of
A Bus Called Heaven here.
Cynthia Ritter: Was your inspiration for the book a real bus?
Bob Graham: I did see such a bus parked in the street, and I learned our granddaughter Rosie had looked inside.
I said, “What did you see, Rose?” A girl of few words, she replied, “Candles.” It was not the vehicle’s contents that inspired my first scribbling, it was the image of a child on tiptoe peering into the windows of an old bus with a package-taped sign reading “Heaven.”
