This book horrified me as a kid, and I still think about the tree roots scene. ( ) A strange man comes to town for the annual fair, claiming to be able to grant wishes for fifty cents apiece. He sells four wishes, one each to four townspeople, then promptly disappears. The story of each person and their wish is told separately, but by the end they're all nicely entwined. A fun version of the Foolish Wish trope, but nothing earth-shattering here.
Jim (BookHive (www.bookhive.org)) Thaddeus Blinn has come to the village of Coven Tree to grant you your wish. Thaddeus Blinn is The Wish Giver . Enter his tent and pay only .50 cents for a wish. Then you will learn what happens when wishes come true! The book follows the wishes of three villagers: Polly Kemp, who says whatever she wants; Rowena Jervis, a young girl who is madly in love; and Adam Fiske, a boy who only wants his family's farm to have some water. It is a magical twist to the old adage: be careful for what you wish for, it might (will) come true! Once again, Bill Brittain entertains you with just enough alarming mayhem to draw you deep into the world of Coven Tree. Category: Fantasy; Scary. Grade Level: Intermediate (4th-6th grade). 1983, Harper & Row. Ages 9 to 12. Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Bevat een handleiding voor docentenPrijzenErelijsten
