Matt de la Peña (r.) and Christian Robinson, the author-illustrator team behind Last Stop on Market Street (Penguin), were on their way to dinner in Brooklyn, N.Y., last weekend when a bus pulled up. Luckily, they happened to have a copy of their book on hand for a quick photo. Last Stop tells the story of a young boy and his grandmother commuting on the city bus, as she imparts a lesson about gratitude to him. In a starred review, Shelf Awareness wrote: "With the precision of a poet, Matt de la Peña chronicles a boy's heartwarming Sunday morning routine with his nana. Christian Robinson's uplifting palette and culturally diverse cast brighten the rainy-day backdrop."
