"Grape’s misadventures, born from the “spiders” in his brain, are hilarious and heart-wrenching. Whether he's stuck in a storm drain, singing songs to his crush, or (gulp) streaking, you will find yourself cheering and quite possibly shedding a tear for this dear boy. Grape! is a book of uncommon empathy, a perfect story for every child who wants to be heard and loved for who they are, and for every grown up who wants to understand them."
~J. Cynthia McDermott.EdD. Founder, Horace Mann Upstanders Children’s Book Award
Professor and Regional Director at Antioch University, Los Angeles
“Gabriel Arquilevich has created something very special here. Hilarious, moving, and full of life, Grape is an unforgettable character, an unforgettable book.”
~Gayle Brandeis, award-winning author of My Life with the Lincolns
"Quirky kids (and adults who remember being quirky kids) will cheer for Gabriel Arquilevich’s Grape!—a lovable mess of a tween who moves from one laugh-out-loud disaster to another while struggling to navigate school and friendships and musical theater camp in this rollicking homage to 1970s pop culture."
~Melissa Hart, author of Avenging the Owl and Better with Books: 500 Diverse Books to Ignite Empathy and Encourage Self-Acceptance in Tweens and Teens.
