Can all the children around the world go to school and study in bright classrooms?
The answer is no. On a small farm in Mexico, there are no schools. The bus is the school. The driver of the bus is the teacher. It's a school bus, but it doesn't take the children to school. It just goes from place to place, and it comes to this farm in June. The bus will stay here and teach the children. The farmers call it the "School on Wheels (轮子)". Every time the bus comes, people on the farm will run to it, shouting and laughing. They warmly welcome the school bus. They love the school bus.
When the bus is on the farm in the morning, the teacher teaches the small children. In the afternoon, the bigger children come to have their lessons because they have to work in the morning. At night, the fathers and mothers come to school. They want to learn too. People on the farm all want to learn knowledge, but they don't have a school on the farm. In September, the bus will leave for another farm. How the farmers hope that some day they can have a real school on their farm!
