"Even before the election, Grace made good on her promises"

I really enjoyed that this book could teach students more about the presidential election in a more kid friendly way

“Grace for President” by Kelly DiPucchio and illustrated by LeUyen Pham

This timely story centers around Grace who is inspired to become the first female US President. It follows her on her journey to become class president. Along with diverse representation, the book centers around the process of the electoral college. This would be an excellent shared reading to accompany Social Studies election content.

Inspiring book to show girls that they can dream big and become the POTUS one day. I also appreciated that this book covers the electoral college and how it works. I do wish that this book showed both sides either shaking hands or congratulating each other at the end. We need to show kids that integrity still exists and should be at the forefront in politics today.

I really liked this one! And, frustratingly, it feels so true to life and white male privilege. Grace campaigns hard, volunteers, makes change happen before she is elected, and it is still almost a tie between her and the white boy who does very little campaigning because he thinks he will win because there are more boys in the class who he assumes will only vote for another boy. ⬇️⬇️
