Last Stop on Market Street

This picture book is this year's Newbery Winner.  Newbery.  Not Caldecott...although it received a Caldecott Honor as well.  Newbery awards are given to the best contribution to children's literature for the year.  It almost always is a chapter book.  This year, it broke from that tradition.  This is a story of a little boy who is on a bus ride with his grandma.  He is complaining about all the things he doesn't have, while his grandma is pointing out all the beautiful things in life they would miss if they did not take the bus.  (PIC DEL)
