What would you do if you were about to lose your best friend … forever. Grace the Amazing is a story that GLOWS. Quirky, original, and endearing, it’s filled with fun, laughter, tears, and totally relatable childhood moments that will forever find a place in your heart. Grace Marshall is eleven years old. She’s curious and precocious, stubborn and determined, creative and eccentric. She dreams of becoming many things when she grows up, including a magician called Grace the Amazing! Grace may be little, but she has big emotions and a million burning questions that demand answers. Her only friend is her art teacher, Pamela. When Grace discovers that Pamela is dying, the fragile certainties that existed in Grace’s world threaten to slip away. She embarks on a journey to find a cure for Pamela using miraculous magic and while doing so she asks the big questions about life, love, friendship, and death. Some of the answers she uncovers will surprise both Grace and readers.
