This was a good read!!! The back of the book says that it is a middle grade book, but considering how short it is and how big the text is, it could be easily mistaken for younger kids. The whole big is about Grace going behind her mom’s back to do something that she knows she isn’t supposed to. Instead of getting in trouble in the end, she apologizes and then is rewarded when mom says “some rules are meant to be broken.” Definitely for older kids but it is overall a pretty good story!
