I am a HUGE fan of Mlynowski’s other fantasy series (Upside Down Magic & Whatever After), so I was so excited to read the first book in a new series for her. Like her others, it was so engaging and easy to connect with.

This book was excellent. My daughter read it first and said I would like it. I agree! Good storytelling and a good lesson for my 8 year old.

It’s a Sarah Mlynowski book, of course it’s going to heal my inner child.

I read this with my third grader. She found it hilarious and thought-provoking. I thought it was pretty basic but solid. We both got a big laugh out of Principal Bort's first name being .

This was so much fun! Thank you to the author for sending me a copy. I loved that there was Jewish rep and that it takes place in Manhattan. I loved the different friendships and the magical piece.

Be careful what you wish for... or perhaps, be careful how you phrase your wish. Becca learns this the hard way, but ultimately this story shows how being friends can change as people age and interests grow or fade. Very sweet.
