Description/Notes
Tricia can't stand her rotten redheaded older brother Richie, who can do everything better than she can. So when her grandmother tells her a wish made on a shooting star will come true, she knows exactly what to wish for-to be able to do something, anything, better than Richie. When a traveling carnival comes to town, Tricia decides what that something will be-she'll ride the merry-go-round longer than Richie. And that's how she finds out just what wishes-and rotten redheaded older brothers-can really do. Patricia Polacco is one of the most beloved creators of children's books today. She is the author of the award-winning The Keeping Quilt and other popular favorites, including The Trees of the Dancing Goats and Some Birthday. She lives in Union City, Michigan. Patricia's freckled-faced older brother, Richard, is always sizing her up until she beats him at his own strategy. Full color.
