(3) K-3 Illustrated by Christian Robinson. The team behind the award-winning Last Stop on Market Street introduces young Carmela, who's delighted to spend her birthday in town running errands with her older brother. He's irked that she's underfoot but comes through when she encounters an unexpected disappointment. The commanding cut-paper-like art is full of textured brushstrokes--perfect for this look at a community short on gloss but rich in love.
