Official synopsis Publisher
From Lynne Jonell, the popular author of Emmy and the Incredible Shrinking Rat, comes a high-spirited story of mixed-up magic and wishes gone awry.
Celia Willow is the baby of the family and she’s sick of it. She’s sick of being younger and smaller. She’s sick of never being taken seriously. So when her hamster surprises the Willows with his wish-granting powers, she blurts out her deepest desire. The problem? Celia didn’t exactly wish to be furry. Her big brothers and sister can’t let her parents see her like this, but they only have one night to fix things. How can Abner, Tate, and Derek reverse something as powerful as hamster magic . . . before breakfast?
