Reach for this book when your child is starting to experiment with the idea of consequences or when they seem frustrated that they cannot have everything they want right away.

Soon, every casual wish the children make starts coming true, leading to a series of hilarious but increasingly chaotic disasters. It is a lighthearted fantasy that explores the importance of being careful what you wish for and the responsibility that comes with power. Parents will appreciate how it uses humor to teach accountability and the value of working for things rather than just wishing them into existence. It is perfectly leveled for emerging readers who are ready for more independence but still enjoy a whimsical, fast-paced story.
