> This one got its name because it looked exactly like the green bus used in the phonics learning kit of the same name. My dad had even put Rust-Oleum stuff on the thing and intended to get it repainted to hide the grey spots. But of course, that never happened during the remaining life of the bus. Thus, it was THE Sweet Pickles bus.

Sweet Pickles! I used to have one of those books! I might still have it... Bashful Bear, IIRC. Amazing how much he looks like Stickybear, eh? I don't remember the bus, though. I must've had the wrong book.
