Wish is a wonderful 24-page story about the relationship between a wolf and her cub, standins for parent and child. This hardcover picture book features a tenderly composed rhyming text, heartwarming blue and gray illustrations, and flurries of foil throughout that make certain pages look silver.

Each scene expresses the bond between parent and child. As the story is read it can be emotional. The texts echoes the thoughts of most parents and how they feel toward their child during various phases of their lives.

Children between the ages of two to five years old will delight in the story that revels in the knowledge that when they grow up there will always be someone special who only wants what’s best for them.
