Amazing Grace is a very touching story about a young girl who wants to be Peter Pan in the school play. She is told she can not be Peter Pan because she is a girl and she is black. With the help of her nana, Grace learns that anything is possible if you put your mind to it. In the end, Grace gets the part and does an excellent job. I thought this story was absolutely beautiful. I loved how in the beginning it told how Grace loved stories and acting out the stories. This really showed her creativity. Each story that she liked was so different and imaginative. I loved the overall message of the book that was that anything is possible if you put your mind to it. This is such a great motivational story. Also, children really might think the way they do in the story and feel that Peter Pan must be played by a white male. I think the pictures in this book are great. They look like some type of watercolor and are so colorful.
