Book excerpt: With the same warmth and fun that readers loved in All the Answers, award-winning author Kate Messner weaves fantasy into the ordinary, giving every reader the opportunity to experience a little magic. Be careful what you wish for . . . When Charlie Brennan goes ice fishing on her town's frozen lake, she hopes the fish she reels in will help pay for a fancy Irish dancing dress for her upcoming competition. Instead, she catches a talking fish that offers to grant her wishes in exchange for its freedom, and Charlie's world turns upside down, as her wishes go terribly--and hilariously--wrong. Just as Charlie is finally getting the hang of communicating with a magical fish, a family crisis brings reality into sharp focus. Charlie quickly learns that the real world doesn't always keep fairy-tale promises and life's toughest challenges can't be fixed by a simple wish . . .
