    About this ebook

    The morning of Ava Tree's eighth birthday begins the same as always . . . only different. Today, Ava makes wishes and they come true. It's A for Amazing!

    First, she wishes that her pet rabbit, Tibbar, will use the toilet instead of his messy, annoying litter box . . . and he does. Then she wishes that her best friend's very proper mother will not ruin her very improper backwards birthday party by making it forward, upside up right, down side down, and right side out . . . and she doesn't.

    Can Ava wish for anything she wants on her birthday--and every day after that--and have it come true? What if her biggest wish is to undo the saddest thing in her life so far (and possibly forever)? Can that wish come true, too?

    It couldn't hurt to try.

      The month after our mother died, our father began bringing women home. It felt like a behind-her-back kind of operation. “I’m going to have a guest over tonight,” is what he would say. David and I stayed out in the living room, turned up cartoons, bu

      After “The End”

      Oct 10, 2022

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go

    • 4/5
      Grades 3-5During her eighth birthday party (a backwards, upside down, and inside out party), Ava Tree realizes that she has a wishing power!! But how far can she take this newfound power? Can Ava wish her parents back to life? And what happens if she wishes for something bad?
    • 4/5
      It is the first day of summer vacation and eight year old Ava Tree wakes up to the nuzzling of her pet rabbit Tibbar. On this particular morning, Ava’s brother Jack is preparing blueberry pancakes for her birthday. Besides attending college and running his computer business., Jack became Ava’s guardian when their parents died in a car accident. During the day Ava makes three random wishes as she gets ready for her “Backwards” birthday party, she makes three random wishes, and curiously, they come true. She wonders if she couldn’t wish her parents to be alive again. In the weeks that follow, Ava tests her theory and learns that it doesn’t hurt to try, even though isomethings are not to be. (Grades 2-4)
