Mags has a lot to wish for - a nice house with a mama who isn't tired out from work; a normal little sister; a brother who doesn't mooch for food; and, once in a while, she'd like some new clothes for school.
When her sister Hannie finds a stuffed unicorn, Mags's wishes start to come true. She knows the unicorn can't really be magic, but she won't let anything jeopardize her newfound luck - even if it means telling her own sister to believe something that can't possibly be true.
Karen Hesse has created a memorable first novel about a brave young heroine who finds magic in surprising places, and wisdom in unexpected people.
