| Publisher Description: Grace has always rushed headlong into things--often landing her in trouble. Her elderly neighbor (and close friend), Miz Ida, often reminds her to think before she acts. Grace tries to be thoughtful and responsible when helping with Miz Ida's prize-winning cat, Chances, but it isn't easy. Can Grace slow down enough to keep the people (and animals) she cares for safe? Or are there times when taking chances can be a good thing? At Second Chance Ranch, the Ramirez family cares and works to find homes for all kinds of animals on their 200-acre ranch in Texas. Sisters Natalie (12), Abby (10), and twins Emily and Grace (9) all do their part to help out and give each animal the second chance it deserves. |
