Grace is fabulous!! I've been reading a lot more books for younger readers lately, so I was delighted when this one was offered to me. It's a quick read interspered with adorable eye-catching illustrations.
Grace is an everykid who is struggling with friendship issues, parent issues, and all those other everyday dramas that kids face daily. What Grace has though is a wonderful imagination and a whole lot of moxie. She's that charming kid that you can't help but smile at.
I don't know why I never picked up this series before. This is the 5th book in the series and I bought the first as soon as I finished this one. I think the kids in my school would love this series and I can't wait to introduce it to them. Grace is the kind of character who I would enjoy seeing my students look up to. She's creative, kind, and really quite hilarious.
This would be a perfect gift for those kids in your life who love to read, love to laugh, and love to be creative!!
