Description
An Instant New York Times Best Seller!
In Matt de la Peña and Christian Robinson's first collaboration since the Newbery Medal- and Caldecott Honor-winning Last Stop on Market Street comes a poignant and timely new book that's sure to be an instant classic: now adapted for audio, with narration by the author.
When Carmela wakes up on her birthday, her wish has already come true - she's finally old enough to join her big brother as he does the family errands. Together, they travel through their neighborhood, past the crowded bus stop, the fenced-off repair shop, and the panadería, until they arrive at the laundromat, where Carmela finds a lone dandelion growing in the pavement. But before she can blow its white fluff away, her brother tells her she has to make a wish. If only she can think of just the right wish to make....
With lyrical, stirring text and evocative narration, Matt de la Peña and Christian Robinson have delivered a moving ode to family, to dreamers, and to finding hope in the most unexpected places

"The award-winning team behind Last Stop on Market Street portrays Carmela’s Spanish-speaking community as a vibrant place of possibility, and Robinson’s acrylic-and-cutout spreads introduce readers to street vendors, workers in the fields, and sweeping views of the sea. Sensitively conceived and exuberantly executed, Carmela’s story shines." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)
“Full of rich details, sharp and restrained writing, and acrylic paintings that look textured enough to rise off the page.... Another near-perfect slice of life from a duo that has found a way to spotlight underrepresented children without forgetting that they are children first.” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review)
“Carmela’s journey of wishing, waiting, and wanting resonates on many levels; an important addition to bookshelves everywhere." (School Library Journal, starred review)
