For fans of such favorite series as The Penderwicks and The Vanderbeekers. This funny and gentle classic series is an enjoyable read-aloud and also a strong choice for independent reading. What is half of twice a talking cat? Or to be half-again twice not-here? And how do you double your most heartfelt wish, the one you care about so much it has to be perfect? Wishing for two times some things is a cinch, but other doubled wishes only cause twice as much trouble. It turns out the coin grants wishes-but only by half, so that you must wish for twice as much as you want. Luckily for Edward Eagers fans, the children in his latest book are just as lively and literary as those in Half Magic.-The New York Times Book Review. Jane finds the coin, and because she and her siblings are having the worst, most dreadfully boring summer ever, she idly wishes something exciting would happen.Īnd something does: Her wish is granted. It all begins with a strange coin on a sun-warmed sidewalk.
