Wish You Weren't by Sherrie PetersenMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is a wonderful middle grade fantasy. Who has not wished their sibling away? Poor Marten wishes his little brother, Aldrin, away by wishing on a star. It is a story that teaches Marten that life is more than just what he wants. The big twist is not that his brother disappears or that he even caused his brother to disappear. The journey Marten takes is a lesson. He learns to care about his family more than himself. He also learns that having a little brother break your toys is not the worst thing in the world. Children will love this book full of lessons learned.
