(4) 4-6 After her family is evicted from their Washington, D.C., home in 1932, eleven-year-old Grace is sent to a mission and taken in by a well-off family who wants to adopt her. Although predictable, this historical tale (inspired by a real experience) faithfully recounts some of the sacrifices and difficult choices that families had to make to survive during the Great Depression. An author's note is included.
