problems that face her. She can pull the metal handles off of large doors, using her powerful super strength; and even she can jump the highest into the air. Despite her tough exterior, she loves ballet, especially The Nutcracker, and appears to be a self-taught ballet dancer herself to a certain extent ("Holiday Special"). Wanda's favorite singer is Molly Cule (a play on the word molecule), and she loves sports, fighting, rock music (rather she's playing her electric guitar) and hanging out with boys. Despite coming across as brash and bossy, she truly does care about her friends, such as in "Holiday Special," where she is disappointed that Arnold could not come along to see The Nutcracker due to his grandmother being ill. Wanda has black hair and pale white skin. She wears a red vest, decorated with yellow flowers, over a short sleeve pink t-shirt with matching red pants, white socks and black Mary Jane shoes. In the original series spin-off books Ms. Frizzle's Adventures, she has an older brother named Henry, whereas on the TV series, she only has a younger brother, William. When the class is in a problematic situation, Wanda usually cries out, "What are we gonna do? What are we gonna do? What are we gonna do?" Her other catchphrase is "Come on, you weaselly wimps!" The Magic School Bus The bus is "very unusual" and sometimes seems to have a mind of its own. In appearance, it may look like a typical yellow school bus, but it is capable of shrinking and expanding, as well as transforming itself into many kinds of items, most commonly as robotic animals in order to blend in with the environment in safari-type field trips. When it shrinks, so do its passengers, and occasionally, when the bus returns to its normal size when something was left behind, the other item is set back to normal too ("Gets Eaten"). It is usually completely under Ms. Frizzle's or Liz's control, although in certain episodes the bus exhibits independent, even irrational, behavior: in "Gets Ready, Set, Dough," the bus malfunctions and shrinks in size despite Ms. Frizzle trying to fix it. In "The Magic School Bus Holiday Special", the bus disassembles itself into raw materials (while scowling), after having done so to several other structures (though Wanda did angrily slam her fists in the bus's hood before it self-disassembled); and in "The
