Author: Charise Mericle Harper
Lexile Score: not yet scored? My guess: 550
Genre: realistic (if somewhat aloof) fiction
Maturity level: 2nd grade+
Pages: 137 - *note: There are no chapters, really, more like random titles for connected thoughts. They start on middles of pages and are called tihngs like "The Completely Surprising Thing Happens Again" and "What I almost Could Not Believe."
Theme: empathy. A second-place theme would be WAY behind empathy - maybe friendship?
Project ideas: Take photos of somebody's prized possession and mail them to that person on postcards? That's what Just Grace does.
First Line: I did not get to be the helper to Mister magic the Magician at my very own (so it should have been me) sixth birthday party because Sammy Stringer spit purple grape juice all over my special white shirt with a big six on it, and I had to change it right when Mister Magic was starting up.
Main Character: Just Grace
