This 32-page children&rsquo;s book follows young, spunky Grace, who has misplaced her favorite toy. When her mom advises her to retrace her steps, readers accompany Grace on a review of an enjoyable day in the life of a child &ndash; compromising on breakfast with her family, playing outside, and helping with chores &ndash; but she still can&rsquo;t find her beloved caterpillar toy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With her family&rsquo;s help, she searches high and low. As the day begins to wane, though, she&rsquo;s still distraught. Ultimately, Grace&rsquo;s mom recovers the precious caterpillar while the young girl has learned valuable lessons in retracing her steps, being diligent, asking for help&hellip; And that we often find things where we least expect them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Featuring delightful illustrations and fun rhyming language, this children&rsquo;s book lets kids know that losing a favorite item isn&rsquo;t the end of the world and teaches them important strategies for finding what has been lost. It also illustrates the importance of remaining calm and maintaining a positive attitude.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Much of author Cheryl Lock&rsquo;s previous work &mdash; and her foray into children&rsquo;s books &mdash; is inspired by her own experiences as a parent. She aims to teach young people memorable life lessons through relatable characters and situations. &ldquo;Grace Retraces Her Day&rdquo; is based on the real-life experience of her middle daughter, and is likely a familiar situation for parents of all backgrounds. The book&rsquo;s illustrations are even inspired by the author&rsquo;s family home.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This charming, lighthearted, and informative children&rsquo;s book contains an endearing story and great lessons for young readers, helping everyone in the family learn from Grace&rsquo;s mission to find her lost toy caterpillar.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&ldquo;Grace Retraces Her Day&rdquo; (ISBN: 9781963844832 \/ 9781965340783) can be purchased through retailers worldwide, including Barnes and Noble and Amazon.
