When Grace doesn’t see a female face on a poster of US presidents, she decides to be the president of her class at school. But she soon realizes that she has entered a tough race where being the best candidate doesn’t always mean being the most popular. Grace for President is a fun introduction to the electoral system, and teaches the value of hard work, courage, and independent thought.
