MY KIDS AND I LOVED THIS BOOK!!! Lethcoe's first book, You Wish, introduced the reader to the world of Benjamin Piff and the Wishworks Factory where birthday wishes are fulfilled. In Wishful Thinking, we meet Ben's "sweetly horrible" cousin, Penelope Piff who wants nothing more than to destroy Ben's happiness and the factory. What a great character!!! Ben and his friends risk everything to set the factory right. As we learn, the factory does not just fulfill simplistic birthday wishes...it gives hopes and dreams to children. WOW!!! This well-written and fun story (along with the first book) gently teaches children that good is worth fighting for. We can't wait for the next book.
