From the author of Strictly No Elephants comes a sweet picture book that explores themes of selflessness and empathy when a girl has the chance to make just one wish.
In the grass, a girl finds an extraordinary thing that gives her...just...one...wish.
She asks her those around her what they would wish for in her shoes, but nothing seems quite right. What will her perfect wish be?
In this pitch-perfect picture book, Lisa Mantchev takes the concept of a magic wish and uses it to explore real world empathy, kindness, and good will.
"A Paula Wiseman Book."
Ages 4-8
A young girl has so many choices but only one wish. She asks those around her what they would wish for, but nothing seems quite right. What will her perfect wish be?-- Publisher's description.
