Wish

AUTHOR- Barbara O'Connor
RATING-⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

BOOK DESCRIPTION
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.

WHAT I THOUGHT
This was a very good book and I really liked the character because every day she found a different way to get her wish to come true. The cover was a little misleading and made me think that this book was going to be about a girl and how much she loves her dog and how she always has always wished for one but it's actually about this girl who doesn't have a loving family and has to spend the summer with her aunt and uncle and Charlie has a very bad temper and gets in trouble a lot but in the end she ends up with a happy family that loves her.
