"Jellyfish buses are the best way to travel the great, big ocean. Slowpoke, the jellyfish, loves his job driving the bus and his passengers, but unfortunately, he can't keep up with demands for faster travel. One day he is called into the jellyfish bus headquarters and told that he should find a career that suits him better. Slowpoke is sad. He decides to go on a relaxing vacation but quickly becomes bored. So he travels to the deepest, darkest parts of the ocean to go sightseeing. But it's too dark to see! He almost turns back when a sudden light appears-attached to an anglerfish, who needs help getting to the Ocean Night Bazaar. So Slowpoke takes on a new passenger, who helps light their way across the deep, deep ocean. As they travel, they encounter other deep-sea creatures who have never been to the "above," and soon Slowpoke finds himself full of excited passengers. There's just one problem: will Slowpoke get his passengers to the bazaar on time? Through dark, unfamiliar terrain, bustling traffic, and even a dangerous pod of sleeping whales, Slowpoke determinedly buses his passengers to their destination-where they have a ton of fun before it's time to head home. As they begin the long return journey, Slowpoke decides that vacation can wait. He has found his new career-as a deep-ocean jellyfish tour bus! A humorous tale about a jellyfish who is feeling a little washed up ... until he makes the most out of a salty situation and turns his luck around on a deep-sea adventure with new friends!"--,Provided by publisher.
