THE JUST GRACE BOOKS by Charise Mericle Harper chronicle the life of Grace Stewart, her

best friend Mimi, and their friends Sammy and Max. Miss Lois, their third-grade teacher,

Graces in her class. Grace has a teeny-tiny superpower—she can always tell when someone is

unhappy, and then she has to do something to help that person. So what kinds of adventures does

a sort-of superhero with a fabulous downstairs French neighbor get herself into? Read all the Just

Grace books to find out!
