We woke up in the usual way,
but it was not a usual day.
Out on the lawn, plain as could be,
stood an orange wishing tree.
"I wish!" I said. "I wish!" said you.
And so our double wishes grew.

Wishes are a magical part of childhood. Whether we wish on stars or blow out candles on a cake, our dreams matter. Nancy Tillman captures the wonder of wishes as only she can, with love.

Industry Reviews

Gorgeous, magical illustrations complement this ode to the love between a parent and child. The joyous excursion through the boy's imagination makes for a sweet bedtime read, giving both parent and child a chance to share wishes great and small. A delightful read for one-on-one sharing. --School Library Journal

Tillman's mixed-media collages always have an air of surreal magic to them, a quality that especially befits this dreamy story of a mother's visit to a wish-granting tree with her child. --Publishers Weekly

Praise for Nancy Tillman:

Young children adore pretending to be animals, and Tillman's insight into the wish to turn into another creature powers this book. --Publishers Weekly on I'd Know You Anywhere, My Love

This is soothing, visually attractive, and makes for a comforting bedtime read-aloud. --Booklist on The Crown on Your Head

"A beautiful tribute to the uniqueness of every child." --Kirkus Reviews on On the Night You Were Born
