Grace loves to act out stories. Sometimes she plays the leading part, sometimes she is ˜a cast of thousands.` When her school decides to perform Peter Pan, Grace is longing to play Peter, but her classmates say that Peter was a boy, and besides, he wasn`t black... But Grace`s Ma and Nana tell her she can be anything she wants if she puts her mind to it...
