From the author of beloved novels Ms. Bixby's Last Day and Posted
comes a hilarious, heartfelt, and unforgettable novel about a
fairy-in-training.
Everyone who wishes upon a star, or a candle, or a penny thrown into a
fountain knows that you're not allowed to tell anyone what you've wished
for. But even so, there is someone out there who hears it.
In a magical land called the Haven lives a young fairy named Ophelia
Delphinium Fidgets. Ophela is no ordinary fairy--she is a Granter: one
of the select fairies whose job it is to venture out into the world and
grant the wishes of unsuspecting humans every day.
It's the work of the Granters that generates the magic that allows the
fairies to do what they do, and to keep the Haven hidden and safe. But
with worldwide magic levels at an all-time low, this is not as easy as
it sounds. On a typical day, only a small fraction of the millions of
potential wishes gets granted.
Today, however, is anything but typical. Because today, Ophelia is going
to get her very first wish-granting assignment.
And she's about to discover that figuring out how to truly give someone
what they want takes much more than a handful of fairy dust.
