Book-A-Day 15

With the hustle and bustle of life, many forget to stop and look around them to see the beauty of the world.  In Last Stop on Market Street by Matt De La Pena, CJ and his nana have the opportunity to watch so much as they ride the city bus.  As they walk to the bus, get on, and ride through multiple stops, they are surrounded by beauty.  Thanks to Nana, CJ recognizes more than he would on his own.  Last Stop on Market Street was the winner of the 2016 Newbery Medal, 2016 Caldecott Honor Book, and 2016 Coretta Scott King Illustrator Honor Book, among many other awards.  This is definitely a must-read!  #BookADay15
