Travel Guide
BookTrail Travel to Boston via Bus Routes!
The author says:
My inspiration for Bus Route to Boston:
I grew up on a bus route in Everett, Massachusetts. As a young girl, I remember frequent Saturday bus trips, which traveled down our street, through crowded neighborhoods, over the bridge, then all the way into Boston. My mother, sister and I went bargain hunting in Filene’s Basement, enjoyed ice cream at Bailey’s, shopped for vegetables at Haymarket and ventured into the Northend for pizza and cannoli. Through my story and paintings I have shared these warm childhood memories of Boston. BUS ROUTE TO BOSTON is a treasure for anyone who shares these memories, as well as children of all ages who love nostalgic family stories.
