Still Just Grace (Just Grace Series) Book

We've just begun reading the Just Grace series by Charise Mericle Harper. This book takes us on a road trip to Chicago and back as Grace's family helps her Grandmother move. And then she chronicles her day-to-day school life, with conflicts and challenges galore. We really liked her project with two of the other Graces in class and her changing relationship with Grace F.

After reading the first two books, our girls are split: our oldest loves them, our youngest doesn't really like them at all. Perhaps it's the journal-style writing or the fact that Grace is about the same age as our oldest, but the stories certainly appeal to her. And the illustrations are similar to her style of drawing, so she loves them. Overall, we have enjoyed these books and will continue to read them, even if it's as an independent read and not something we share as a family.
