The Magic Poetry Bus is a source of "pro-active poetry", a dramatic approach to the teaching of poetry in the classroom and in the community.

The Bus is a vehicle for the imagination — techniques for learning and loving poems (on-line at our website and in the forthcoming Magic Poetry Bus Travel Book, a handbook for poetry bus riders and drivers). The Magic Poetry Bus is the official project of Carol Muske-Dukes, as Poet Laureate of the state of California — though The Bus, in partnership with Get Lit and the Get Lit Players, reaches audiences throughout the state of California — and beyond!
