The Bus Bunch is a group of kids in the town of Brite Star who live far enough away from school they have to picked up every day at Holly Hill Drive by their favorite bus driver, Mr. Emerson. The adventures they share and life lessons they learn take place in Brite Star and are centered around their trips on the bus.

Dani loves being the center of attention. When some of the other kids in her class have exciting things to share on Tuesday's "show-and-tell" Dani feels she needs to share something exciting as well. In doing so she ends up stretching the truth and has to deal with the consequences.
