Grace loves stories. She loves to hear them, read them and tell them. But most of all, she loves to act them out, as she and her neighborhood friends launch into fantastic backyard expeditions with Peter Pan, Joan of Arc, Anansi the Spider, Mowgli, Hiawatha and Cinderella. This roller coaster of imagination is a wonderful tale of creative fantasy, self-confidence and the importance of standing up for yourself.
