Book Review: Meet Marie-Grace

  I recently bought and read the new American Girl book titled Meet Marie-Grace. Marie-Grace's books are unique because they are not just about her. Every other book is about her best friend, Cecile. This is something American Girl has never done before, but I like how each book tells the same events as the last book but from a different person's viewpoint. Have you read the books? What do you think?
  In Meet Marie-Grace, Marie-Grace has just moved to New Orleans with her father. She isn't sure about the new city at first, but gradually begins to find friends and make her way around. She meets an opera singer, Mademoiselle Océane, who also teaches voice lessons. This is where Marie-Grace meets Cecile, a confident, dark-skinned girl whom Mademoiselle teaches. But Marie-Grace is shy and not sure how to act when school opens. Can she overcome her fears, make friends, and feel like she fits in to New Orleans?
