Ella May and the Wishing Stone by Cary Fagan

Ella May and the Wishing Stone by Cary Fagan

One day, Ella May finds a stone that has a line going all-all-all the way around it. Surely a stone this special must grant wishes, she decides. Soon she is busy making wishes and bragging about them. When her friends want to share the fun, Ella May objects. But she soon learns that keeping the stone for herself is a sure way to lose friends. By using her imagination - much more powerful than any stone - she is able to grant everybody's wishes, including her own.

Cary Fagan's witty and sharply observed story will delight young readers who are beginning to explore the pleasures and challenges of sharing and friendship.
