Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
When Ava Blok's mother returned to Willow Hill after a long, mysterious absence, she hoped her family's suffering would instantly disappear. Her older sisters Natasha and Darya weren't so certain, but that's only because they don't possess Ava's unbridled optimism and her belief that there's good in everyone-even the people who don't believe in magic. But now that Ava's Wishing Day is approaching, her hope is dwindling. Her sisters made their wishes months ago and there were unintended consequences to their actions. In fact, Ava's family is in more trouble than before. Mama still hasn't told Papa that she's back, and Papa is falling in love with someone else. None of that was supposed to happen! Ava wants to set things right once and for all, but if she's going to use her wishes, she can't repeat the mistakes of the Blok girls who've gone before her. However in order to ensure that history doesn't repeat itself, Ava may have to undo a moment in time: a journey that could change-and cost her-everything.
Ages 8-12.
"Now that her sisters Natasha and Darya have had their turn, Ava Blok finally gets her Wishing Day. But after seeing the unintended consequences of the wishes her sisters made, she's not sure what to wish for. The only thing she's certain of is that it's her job to set things right. Hopeful that she can put her broken family back together, and eager to prove her pessimistic older sisters wrong, Ava realizes that fixing the future means changing the past. Will the journey her wishes take her on end up costing her everything?" -- Publisher's annotation.
