#bookaday Last Stop on Market Street by Matt De La Pena Pictures by Christian Robinson

A lovely story about appreciating the everyday things in life. The boy's Nana always turns her grandson CJ's complaints into a positive view in a way that only grandmother's can. Many ideas are touched upon in this book...poverty, music, manners, volunteering, helping, caring, gratefulness, and family. We feel more appreciative of everyday things. That what good books do...they make us FEEL! 5/5 stars

You will notice that I try not to give reviews that are of any length or go into much of the story. I usually read books because of recommendations from other people. IF I read a review, I read the shortest one I can find or just a few paragraphs of a long review. I like to use our wonderful public library's summary of a book, it's short and to the point. As my grandson and I say at the end of each book, "YAY BOOKS" and then we clap and holler like Kermit the Frog.
