    Grace, who earned the nickname of Just Grace in school where there are six girls named Grace, loves cats, taking
    pictures of cats, and drawing Not So Super comics. She dislikes Sammy Stringer, who delivers papers and picks his
    nose.

    She and her best friend have lots and lots of big ideas, so when Mrs. Luther's cat disappears, they send postcards to
    cheer her up. But even the best plans backfire sometimes, and soon Grace finds herself in trouble.

    Grace is a hilarious young protagonist who comes up with ideas that are sure to make anyone smile. The characters
    in this book stay true to childhood, and looking back at my elementary school experiences, I'm sure that almost
    everyone will be able to relate to Grace and her friends.

    Fans of the JUNIE B. JONES and AMBER BROWN series are sure to love JUST GRACE.
