 * __ Book Report __**

The Wish Giver by Bill Brittain
 * 1. ** **What is the title of your book and who is the author?**


 * 2. ** **Name and describe two main characters.**

Thaddeus Blinn - a short little man who wears a small hat and a white vest who comes to a town once in time and hands out little cards ( each card is worth 50 cents) to people who come to his tent and if you press a red dot on them and wish your wish comes true.

Stew Meat - an old man who tells most of the story and owns a little shop.

In the beginning 3 people (Rowena, Polly, and Adam) go to a tent with a little man inside and he gives them"wish cards" that if your finger on a red dot and wish your wish comes true. Polly wishes that people would laugh and smile when they see her but her wish makes her have a bullfrog croak whenever she says something bad, insulting, or rude. People do laugh and smile! Rowena wishes that someone would plant roots in their town but he turns into a tree! Adam wishes that there would be water on his farm, but he gets water everywhere on his farm, literally!
 * 3. ** **Write a summary of your book.** (5-12 sentences)

I think what makes this book good is how there are real things/places and how they can be much different when magic is involved. For example, in the book someone wishes there would be water everywhere on the farm and water spouts up on the ground and floods the farm.
 * Big Question #1: What makes this book good? **

Something that could make this book better is to make a little more longer because this book is pretty short. If the book was longer the stories would be longer and would have more detail. The most important thing the author wants you to know is probably to be careful what you wish for because in the book all of the people who wished weren't specific with their wishes so it didn't come out as they planned.
 * Big Question #2: What would make this book better? **
 * Big Question #3: What’s the one most important thing the author wants you to know? **

** Big Question #4: Why did the writer write this? ** I think the writer wrote this to entertain the reader or to show them how a person can be mad with power like when Adam wanted enough water for his whole farm and then when it came he was so happy that it finally came and he wanted more but it just flooded the farm.

** Big Question #5: What does the audience need to know to understand and enjoy the book? ** The audience needs to know that the wishes are with magic. It's not just upon a shooting star, someone uses magic for the wishes to come true. When one story is over the next story begins and the story goes back in time to when they got the wish card.
