There is no end to Grace's imagination! It is the school holidays and she and her friends spend their time playing at being everything from doctors to ghost-hunters. Then when Grace takes part in her favourite musical 'Annie', she realises that what she really wants to be is a star!
This book tackles the subject of an absent father (he lives in The Gambia) and a mother's new boyfriend, with sensibility and great understanding of children's emotional needs. A multicultural celebration of childhood, effectively illustrated with vivid black-and-white artwork.
