Go to the Store with Shakur!

At the store, Shakur is ready to walk around instead of riding in the cart. He explores aisles filled with colorful choices. Dad reminds him that he can only pick one treat. Will it be strawberries or cookies? When it is time to check out, Shakur is a good helper and places the groceries on the belt. His trip to the store captures the excitement and pride of growing up.
