I didn't actually read this; read the first chapter and a bit, skipped through, and read the last couple chapters. That's all the teen angst I could stand. "Oh dear, I'm not popular, but all I want is to be popular with the popular kids..." The story even points out that she hasn't bothered to try to make friends outside the popular crowd. By the end of the book she has made friends, both in and out of the popular crowd, and she seems a lot better...but when she runs into the witch/fairy/whatever again, she tries the same stuff over and it's not her doing that she isn't granted another (unwise) wish. I don't have time to read about stupid people who don't learn. Bye-bye. ( ) There's an awful lot of kissing in this book for a story about eighth-graders. A very quick read, and I'm glad of it. If it had lasted any longer I probably would've started to get irritated. It might be an okay book for middle readers, but unfortunately it's not one of those gems that can be thoroughly enjoyed at any age. The Wish, by Gail Carson Levine, is a book about a girl (Wilma) who desperately wants to be liked by her peers. She meets an old lady on the bus and decides to offer her seat to her. The old lady apparently has magical powers and offers Wilma one wish. Of course, Wilma wishes to be popular. This book follows the adventures Wilma has when she is popular, and also shows the consequences it causes when the wish is over. I would recommend readers in 4th-6th grade for this book This is a dream that every middle school girl has (to be popular), so it is a great depiction of how Wilma became popular but didn't like it. At first she liked it, but then she realized that she missed her friends--the people who were true friends to her. This book really portrays the message of how great, strong, meaningful friendships are more important than superficial popularity. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
