Genudgivelse i maxi-paperback. Christian er søn af et dansk ægtepar, der bor og arbejder i Tanzania. Han føler sig meget overladt til sig selv, men bliver ven med Marcus, en sort dreng med en miserabel familiebaggrund, som arbejder for en svensk familie.   Vi følger skiftevis de to drenge gennem de ofte meget intense og voldsomme oplevelser, den afrikanske virkelighed udsætter dem for, en verden fyldt med modsætninger og konflikter i alle generationer og alle miljøer, hvor enhver er sin egen lykkes smed, og hvor sex og sygdom, død og alkohol er allestedsnærværende og spiller de dominerende roller.   De to drenges venskab vokser sig varmt og stærkt, men det går bedst, mens de er børn, og helt lykkeligt bliver det aldrig: Den hvide vil være sort, den sorte hvid – og efterhånden som de bliver ældre, vokser modsætningsforholdet mellem dem, ikke engang musikken kan mere holde dem sammen, de gensidige forventninger viser sig ikke at kunne honoreres.   Christian bliver sendt til Danmark, hvor han skal bo hos slægtninge i Aalborg, men han kan ikke finde sig til rette og ender med at rejse tilbage til Afrika. Men heller ikke her føler han sig hjemme mere – han hverken kan eller vil leve op til den rolle, han som hvid skal påtage sig.

Great story and illustrations!
I purchased this book as a Christmas present for my toddler nephew and it became his favorite new book of the year! I had read the story randomly in a store some years ago as the title, awards, and cover illustration caught my eye. Growing up as a 90s kid, I cannot recall being exposed to a variety of diverse books especially ones that take place in the city and Last Stop on Market Street stuck with me. It depicts the city life well, how for some the only transportation is the bus, and the value of community by giving your time to help and connect with others. The illustrations are beautifully done and the story captures both CJ's imaginations and observations wells. My brother especially loved how wise CJ's grandmother is as she guides him during their journey and teaches him at a young age how to help those in need.

A beautifully written and illustrated story about a young boy and his Nana and their loving spirit they share with others
Format: Hardcover
This is a simple, but beautiful story with heart. It is told by a little boy who apparently lives with his Nana. The illustrations are scenes painted in brilliant colors. C.J., the boy has many questions to ask his Nana, like why they have to ride the bus or always to do the same thing every Sunday? Nana patiently and gently answers every question and helps C.J. to open his eyes and his mind to the beauty around him. This book teachers children compassion and to look for good and beauty in people and their surroundings. It models empathy for those who have less than one has. Nana has a lovely spirit and great wisdom. She makes one feel that she is a lady one would like to know. Nana teaches the joy of giving back to others. This is a book I will read again and again.

Wonderful depiction of the city & finding gratitude
Format: Hardcover
I bought this book after moving my young family from SF to a very homogeneous suburb. Rode MUNI with my kids & at the time didn’t realize how diversity is taught passively when it’s all around you. Fast forward, my kiddo makes a comment in preschool that shocks me & realize that she’s now in such a bubble. This book is clearly nostalgic for me, but for my kids it’s a chance to talk about all the different lives people live. A chance to talk about race, culture, homelessness, privilege (riding the bus instead of a car, not having a music player), people with disabilities, etc. To those who choose to post about the grammar In this book, good authors work very hard on depicting dialects, which are 100% a part of one’s culture. Take the opportunity to discuss the diversity that exists in language too. My goodness, white people from Boston add & delete Rs like crazy (Cubar instead of Cuba, ca’ instead of car). 🙃
