From
guinea pigs to magic. From friends to frayed family dynamics. From sparkling
red shoes to quiet hugs with dad and everything in between. Aleesah Darlison’s
latest middle grade novel, Grace the Amazing, has it all … and it all
originated from Aleesah’s own childhood and the special relationship she had
with a beloved teacher.
What
would you do if you were about to lose your best friend … forever. Grace
Marshall is eleven years old. She’s curious and creative and dreams of becoming a
magician called Grace the Amazing! Grace’s only friend is her art teacher,
Pamela. When she discovers that Pamela is ill, the fragile certainties Grace
relies on threaten to slip away. On her mission to find a cure for Pamela using
miraculous magic, Grace asks the big questions about life, love, and
friendship. A sensitive story filled with joy,
heart, and special bonds that last a lifetime.
