Specificatii
A touching story about a girl and her dog, perfect for young animal
lovers Eleven-year-old Charlie Reese has been making the same
secret wish every day since fourth grade. 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.
Suddenly Charlie is in serious danger of discovering that what she
thought she wanted may not be what she needs at all. From
award-winning author Barbara O'Connor comes a middle-grade novel
about a girl who, with the help of a true-blue friend, a
big-hearted aunt and uncle, and the dog of her dreams, unexpectedly
learns the true meaning of family in the least likely of places.
This title has Common Core connections. Praise for Wish "At school,
at home, and in the community, the characters and settings are well
drawn, but it's the narrator's convincing, compelling voice that
will draw readers into the novel and keep them there until her wish
finally comes true." --Booklist"The many ways Charlie] wishes form
something of a catalog of folk and family traditions and are
delightful all by themselves....Speaking in an honest voice
revealing her hurt, resentment, and vulnerability, Charlies
explains how her wish comes true. A warm, real, and heartfelt
tale." --Kirkus Reviews"O'Connor again finds the sweet spot for
young readers who are beyond early chapter books but not quite
ready for the cynicism and/or complexity of much tween-into-teen
lit. Bertha, Gus, and the Odoms are certainly awash in goodness,
but their big-heartedness never devolves into sentimentality."
--The Bulletin"Like a generous portions of grits, Wish makes the
world a little better
