Just Grace and the Double Surprise

Review: Just Grace and the Double Surprise - The Just Grace Series - Charise Mericle Harper - August 2011


Meet Grace or as she is known in her third grade class by her friends and teacher Miss Lois - Just Grace, this is because there are three Grace's in her class , that seems a bit familiar as when I was in 3rd form, we had three Jessica's in my class and two Paula's which I was one of those Paula's.
In Just Grace and the Double Surprise , we read as Grace and her best friend Mimi hold in anticipation for the new arrival of Mimi's sibling whom Mimi and Grace are hoping will be a little sister , we read as Grace decides on taking a journey to create a picture book about her and Mimi's life for the new sibling , For all those just starting to read , this book is great as it contains really short chapters and lots of graphics - it reminded me when I was reading it of the Andy Griffith's series "Just..... " where along each page their are little cartoons.  Each Chapter is split into sections , so if you want to only read one section a night -then it is possible to come back to the story and not forget what was going on. Not to spoil the surprises , I'll finish my review by saying that if you need a good book to start your 7-9yr old daughter on as she moves from the easy readers into chapter books, this is a fun, interactive series to get started on.
