In class we just finished reading the book The Wish Giver. In the story, Thaddus Blinn gives 4 people a card with a red dot on it. He says they can make one wish with it. They all begin to wish for something they have always wanted. However, soon the wishes begin to backfire and trouble starts. The class really enjoyed reading this book, and we have all discussed what we might wish for if given a card with a red dot. What would you wish for? Be careful as wishes don't always come true like how you might imagine!

Did your class consider what might happens if the wishes you chose backfired??! That might be interesting to talk about!
