Shine On, Grace: The Big Tryout
A Christian chapter book for ages 7-10
Can one big-hearted girl find her courage when it counts?
Eight-year-old Grace Taylor isn't sure she belongs at Shine Athletics. The cheerleaders are sparkly, confident, and loud-everything Grace is not. But with encouragement from her best friend, her faithful dog Bailey, and her mom's quiet wisdom, Grace takes her first brave steps into a whole new world.
Between flubbed toe-touches and mean-girl moments, Grace battles doubt and discovers that real courage isn't about being the best-it's about showing up and shining in your own way.
Perfect for early readers ages 7 to 10, Shine On, Grace: The Big Tryout blends friendship, faith, and heartwarming humor into a relatable story for kids who are learning how to be brave, be kind, and believe in themselves.
