About This Lesson
When Grace’s teacher reveals that the United States has never had a female president, Grace decides to be the first. And she immediately starts off her political career as a candidate in the school’s mock election. But soon she realizes that she has entered a tough race. Her popular opponent claims to be the “best man for the job”—and seems to have captured all the male votes. So Grace decides the only thing to do is concentrate on being the best person for the job.
