Grace loves stories and acting them out, either as heroine or hero. She wants to be Peter Pan in the class play, but her friends discourage her because she's a girl and African-American. Grace auditions anyway and wins the part, proving she can be anything she wants to be. Based on the book by Mary Hoffman.
