She even has a list of all the ways there are to make the wish, such as cutting off the pointed end of a slice of pie and wishing on it as she takes the last bite. But when she is sent to the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina to live with family she barely knows, it seems unlikely that her wish will ever come true. That is until she meets Wishbone, a skinny stray dog who captures her heart, and Howard, a neighbor boy who proves surprising in lots of ways.

The Plot: We follow Charlie Reese. She is 11 years old, and her family is broken. So, the girl sets off to live with her aunt and uncle in another town. She starts adjusting to her new life, which is not cloudless. Charlie has her list of things to wish on, and every time, she makes a wish from the bottom of her heart. She meets a wise boy who helps her a lot and brightens her days; she meets a stray dog that will play a significant role in her new life. Whether Charlie's wish comes true, whether her life gets back on track, and whether the little girl has a chance for a truly loving family. You can find out while reading this glorious book. The Writing Style: It was written adorably easily, and I read it almost in one sitting. I wish I could have read this book when I was eleven because it consists of many wise lessons and brilliant examples of behaving in this or that situation. The notions of friendship, love, care, motivation, and kindness are beautifully portrayed. This book is cleverly written. It's full of heartwarming and heart-squeezing moments that made me sob. This book is full of enchanting childhood spirit when you believe that every wish is about to come true, sooner or later. The Characters: I fell in love with most of them from the first lines and felt total disgust toward some of them. All the characters are described masterfully and magnificently in the slightest detail. I enjoyed the multilayers in describing their features and how deeply and profoundly the author depicted their souls. The characters felt alive, and I kept living with them after reading the book. The Fave Quote: "You can't judge people for the mistakes they make. You judge them for how they fix those mistakes." Would I read other books by this author: Sure!
