Witch's Wishes

91 pp. | Holiday | October, 2003 | Trade ISBN 0-8234-1789-1 $$15.95
(4) 1-3 When six-year-old Sarah, dressed as a fairy princess, helps a real witch on Halloween, the witch makes Sarah's wand real. This comedy of wishes granted and reversed (and eventually dissolved) ends with everything (including Sarah's memory) back the way it was before, which leaves the story's point hazy. However, the solid writing and clear characterizations offer a light, pleasant-enough Halloween read.
