<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Quentin Blake's charming art gets an updated look in this new edition of Edward Eager's beloved classic, featuring the original interior illustrations by N. M. Bodecker.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>When is magic <i>not </i>magic? Laura is a girl who goes out of her way to find adventure. So when her family moves to a house with a well in the yard--a wishing well, according to Lydia, Laura's opinionated new neighbor--Laura is all too willing to make a wish and see what happens. Plenty happens. Thanks to the well, Laura and her new friends help save Miss Isabella's house from foreclosure, rescue the almost long-lost heir to a fortune, and even solve the mystery of the antique desk. But is the well truly granting wishes? Or is something else responsible for the adventures of that summer?<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Lots of fun." --<i>New York Times Book Review</i> <p/> "This latest book by the inventive and highly literate Mr. Eager is by all odds his best.
