What Our Readers Say About Us
"I read Gracie Lou to my kindergarten classes and they loved it! It is a sweet story that inspires the imagination. My students loved telling me about the lands that they would travel to if they were Gracie Lou! It would be fun to have younger children draw pictures of the lands that THEY imagined after reading this story. The book would also be a great springboard for creative writing for older children and would help students understand how their writing can come alive by incorporating the five senses. Highly recommended!"

"Grace Lou books just have something extra with the sparkle and whisimcal nature of her lands. So perfect for bedtime with a tenderness that we always have in our Gracie Lou stories. I loved how we saw her get bigger over the years and turn her shooting star over to help her baby brother. It is adorable and clever. Larissa’s books have that playfulness that we love with her musical word play and colorful, descriptive but oh so age appropriate language. Think Fancy Nancy meets Ladybug Girl and they want to add a third member. Precious."
