How To Disappear Completely By: Ali Standish

Genre:  Realistic Fiction
Age Recommendation: Grade 5+

Emma had a wonderful relationship with her grandmother.  Gram always seemed to know when something was troubling Emma and they both shared a love of stories.  When Gram passes away, Emma notices an unusual pale spot on her skin.  The spots turn out to be a skin condition called vitiligo.  Emma feels like her world is falling apart and to top things off she's starting at a new school.  Fortunately, Emma finds a true friend who accepts her for who she is and she uncovers some things she didn't know about her Gram.  This is a wonderful story of family, friendship and accepting who we are.  I highly recommend this book to those who like realistic fiction with a touch of magic.
