Carmela Full of Wishes

Handpicked by Amazon kidsâ€™ books editor, Seira Wilson, for Prime Book Box â€“ a childrenâ€™s subscription that inspires a love of reading.

An InstantÂ New York TimesÂ Bestseller!

In their first collaboration since the Newbery Medal- and Caldecott Honor-winning Last Stop on Market Street, Matt de la PeÃ±a and Christian Robinson deliver a poignant and timely new picture book that's sure to be an instant classic.

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 panaderÃa, 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 stunning, evocative artwork, Matt de la PeÃ±a and Christian Robinson have crafted a moving ode to family, to dreamers, and to finding hope in the most unexpected places.
