90s Trivia: What was the name of the teacher in The Magic School Bus series?

As we said last week, Pocket Trivia: 90s Trivia is now available for downloading (yay!).  As such, we're going to spend this week giving you questions straight out of the 90s.

Do you remember the Magic School Bus series?  This was the one about the kids that, with their teacher, boarded a Magic School Bus that took them on a variety of wacky adventures, including inside of a human body, the solar system and a hurricane, among other locales.  They were lead by their teacher, who is the subject of today's question.  What was the name of the teacher?  Was it Mrs. Casano, Mrs. Schlossberg, Mrs. Frizzle or Mrs. Lichtenstein?




The correct answer to this one would be Mrs. Frizzle - Mrs. Casano & Lichtenstein were my 2nd & 4th grade teachers, and Mrs. Schlossberg is either my wife or my Mom.  But yes, the gang was lead by Mrs. Frizzle, who you really have to think would have been fired as a teacher - she lead that class on some pretty dangerous trips!

Regardless, the series, published by Scholastic, spawned 11 books and a TV series and remains a staple of the childhoods of many - myself included.
