Description

The instant New York Times bestseller!

"Delightful, with just the right touch of magic." — Kirkus Reviews

Because you're blue

This bracelet is now for you.

Speak one wish to make it true...

So begins the second installment of this enchanting series. When different girls around the country receive a wish-granting bracelet in the mail, magical mayhem ensues. Filled with fun illustrations, friendship, and humor, this series is like American Girl...with magic.

Optioned for film!

Addie Asante of Columbus, Ohio, feels stuck in the middle. Her big sister, Sophie, bosses her around while her little sister, Camille gets whatever she wants.

When Addie receives a mysterious package with a magical bracelet, she makes a wish to no longer be in the middle and—POOF—she's transformed into her big sister!

Being Sophie is amazing: Addie can hang out at the cafe after school, have her own room, and sing in the talent show. But as her new long-distance friend, Becca (who had the bracelet last time), warns her, having a wish come true can get really messy. Plus, in a twist of magical chaos, Addie's big sister has become the baby sister, and the baby sister has become ADDIE!

With friendships—and grades—on the line, and a sneaky stranger determined to get her hands on the magic bracelet, can Addie and her sisters find a way to switch back before it's too late?

New York Times bestselling authors Sarah Mlynowski and Debbie Rigaud bring laughter, sparkle, and warmth to this story that's perfect for fans of Whatever After, Upside-Down Magic, The Baby-Sitters Club, and more!

        It is Addie's turn with the magic bracelet in this installment of the Best Wishes series. Ten-year-old Addie Asante, a fifth grader in Columbus, Ohio, tells her tale in a letter to an unknown Lucy. Sandwiched in the middle between bossy, studious older sister Sophie, 12, and indulged little sister Camille, 5, "go-with-the-flow" Addie is used to suppressing her own desires to keep the peace with friends and family. When a mysterious package arrives with the bracelet and instructions, she puts it on at once, ignoring an enclosed warning from Becca, the previous holder of the bracelet, until it is too late. When, in an argument with Sophie, Addie wishes she weren't the middle sister, the bracelet tightens, then glows and warms, and suddenly, the sisters have switched bodies--Addie is Sophie, Sophie is Camille, and Camille is Addie. Mayhem, confusion, twists and turns, and even laugh-out-loud hilarity ensue as each sister tries to cope with the changes. Addie can text with Becca for more information and warnings (including about the strange blond woman who wants the bracelet) but must find the solution herself. Of course, there's a happy, heartwarming ending as Addie and her sisters share their feelings and come to understand each other. Now it's Lucy's turn. Addie and her family present Black in Vee's drawings; Becca is Jewish and light-skinned. Delightful, with just the right touch of magic. (Fantasy. 8-11)

        February 15, 2023
        Grades 3-5 Addie Asante, a fifth-grader, is the middle child between Sophie, a high-achieving seventh-grader, and Camille, an energetic member of the pre-K class at her sisters' school. One morning, Addie opens a package containing a bracelet that she slips onto her wrist without reading the warning not to make a wish while wearing it. Fed up with her siblings, she arrives at school and wishes she wasn't in the middle between her sisters. Immediately, she transforms into Sophie, whose teacher waves her into a seventh-grade classroom. Meanwhile, Camille finds herself looking like Addie and enjoying fifth grade, while Sophie-as-Camille looks miserable in pre-K. Attractive grayscale illustrations portray the main characters within their family and at their school. Using a body switch to enlighten characters about others' viewpoints isn't new, but the writing here provides welcome humor as well as insights. And while the bracelet adds a spark of magic, Addie's first-person narrative is primarily realistic, particularly when portraying the three sisters. Book two in the Best Wishes series is engaging and fun.
