Amazing Grace by Mary Hoffman (author) and Caroline Binch (illustrator) (UK edition)

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. Luckily, Grace’s Ma and Nana are on hand to remind her that she can be anything she wants to be, if she just puts her mind to it… Mary Hoffman’s inspirational, much-loved story of overcoming obstacles is the first in a bestselling series about Grace.

“A groundbreaking book about race and gender when it was first published, and it remains an absolute standard – brilliantly told with superb artwork.” The Ultimate First Book Guide
