    About this audiobook

    Charise Mericle Harper begins a promising new series starring Grace Stewart: lover of comics, cats, and lists (not necessarily in that order). She's unlucky enough to live next door to weird teacher Mrs. Luther. But when Mrs. Luther's beloved cat becomes afraid of its owner after an unfortunate incident, Grace hatches a plot to make her neighbor feel better.

      Grace has a little bit of Junie B Jones in her.
    • 4/5
      This is a sweet little chapter book about a girl named Grace. She is called Just Grace because there are other Graces in her classroom. Grace loves to help people and make lists. In this story she tries to cheer up a neighbor named Mrs. Luther and learns to get along with a "yucky boy" named Sammy Stringer. Of course she learns about herself and others in the process.Grace is a good role model for readers because she really cares about people. There are many other books in this sweet series. I recommend it for 2nd-4th grade.

      I found Grace likeable but not memorable.
    • 4/5
      Harper, Charise Mericle. (2007). Just Grace. New York: Houghton Mifflin Company.When Grace begins third grade she just so happens to be the fourth Grace in her class. In an attempt to differentiate between the four girls, her teacher gives them nicknames and somehow Grace ends up being called "Just Grace" (which she is not too happy about). The rest of the book is about Grace making it through her third grade year. She has to deal with Sammy Stringer, her archenemy, and she also tries to find her neighbors missing cat Crinkles, whom Grace likes very much. I found this book to be really charming and fun to read. It could easily appeal to second grade through fifth grade. Throughout the book are simple drawings because Grace likes drawing comics. There is also the occasional photograph, usually with a caption written by Grace. What I liked most about this book is the voice of Grace - she is quite confident and funny.
    • 3/5
      There are four Graces in the same class and each one, out of necessity, acquires a nickname. Grace becomes “Just Grace,” but it is not a nickname she likes. Her greatest ability is empathy. Just Grace uses her powers to help a neighbor cope with a lost cat with mixed results.
    • 5/5
      This is so good and a quick read
    • 3/5
      A cute book. It is an easy read. I also thought it sounded like a June B. Jones book.
    • 3/5
      This story was about Grace, Grace is a little girl who loves cats especially taking pictures of them. She also likes drawing comics which are pictures throughout the book. Sammy-Stringer is a boy who Grace does not like at all. I found this story very cute, its funny to me because at her age you love doing the simple things in life. I would recommend this book to any young girl.
    • 4/5
      Just Grace, is a fun chapter book that introduces you to a young 3rd grader named Grace Stewart. In a classroom with 3 other Graces, she tries her best to be a unique individual and to find her place within her 3rd grade peers. Grace spends her time drawing comics, sending out post card to her next door neighbor, and plays detective with her friends. We learn that she even has super power that lets her know when someone is unhappy, even when they pretend they are not. Throughout the novel, the reader experiences Graces relationships with her friends, peers, and family, and we learn that she has other great abilities besides her “super power.” This is a fun book that many elementary school readers will enjoy and relate to. It is perfect to have in a classroom or school library for grades 2-4.
