When i read this book it really inspired me.

i ran for president not because of this book, but because of courage. this book is a great one to read.

I ran for school president because this book really encouraged me. I didn't win, but my mom was really proud of me for being that brave.

my mom was almost class presidnet so i should be it. this book gives lots of imformation on being a class president.

I decided to read this book because I wanted to see how a little girl could be brave enough to run for President! This book was awesome. Grace overcame her fears and learned that girls can be President.
