This a book that raises awareness about the Make-A-Wish foundation as well as the recipients of this great program. Mark is a child who spends a lot of time in hospitals. Not only that, but because of his blood disease, he is susceptible to illnesses so can not even have visits from his friends. As Mark gets stronger, he is visited by the Wish Fairies, three ladies who work for Make-A-Wish. He wishes, not for a trip to Disneyland or some expensive toy or game, but to catch bad guys. The Wish Fairies work hard to set up a day and make Mark's wish come true. The illustrations show how much fun Mark has and the expressions on everyone's faces show that it is not just Mark that is enjoying himself. The amount of cooperation needed to make this type of wish come true is amazing. This is a wonderful organization that helps families and clients forget for a while about their illness. The back of the book gives a brief description of Make-A-Wish and what it does. A great book to read to kids, especially if there is a fund raising venture for this group in the works. The publisher generously provided me with a copy of this book via Netgalley. ( )
