Grace Goes to Washington by Kelly DiPucchio and LeUyen Pham - OPTIONAL

Grace Goes to Washington by Kelly DiPucchio, illustrated by LeUyen Pham. PICTURE BOOK. Disney, 2019.  $18. 9781368024334

BUYING ADVISORY: EL - OPTIONAL

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

Grace is on the school leadership team, but she is upset when the group can’t agree on what  they should spend their bake sale money on.  After a trip to Washington DC and an encounter with a new student, Grace has a new idea for the money.

If you want to introduce your students to how democracy can look in their classroom, this could be a useful book.  It is not as user friendly as McNamara’s Vote For Our Future book, but it does help students apply the ideas in their own lives.
