Cada domingo, Jackson y su abuela viajan en autobús a través de la ciudad hasta su parada en la calle Market. Pero hoy, Jackson no se siente contento al hacerlo. Hoy pregunta por qué tienen que esperar bajo la lluvia y por qué no tiene un coche, como sus amigos. Pero la abuela abre los ojos del joven Jackson y le muestra la belleza real en el mundo que los rodea: el espíritu de la bulliciosa ciudad, la música en la vida cotidiana y la magia de sus vecinos. Todas esas cosas que, a menudo, pasamos por alto.

De los galardonados creadores Matt de la Peña y Christian Robinson llega una brillante celebración del amor entre una abuela y su nieto.

Every Sunday after church, CJ and his grandma ride the bus across town. But today, CJ wonders why they don’t own a car like his friend Colby. Why doesn’t he have an iPod like the boys on the bus? How come they always have to get off in the dirty part of town? Each question is met with an encouraging answer from grandma, who helps him see the beauty—and fun—in their routine and the world around them.

This energetic ride through a bustling city highlights the wonderful perspective only grandparent and grandchild can share, and comes to life through Matt de la Peña’s vibrant text and Christian Robinson’s radiant illustrations.
