  • “A great book to teach children how precious life can be and that wishes should be about more than material stuff. Mark embodies the values of selflessness and dedication — instead of wanting something just for himself, he wishes for something that will benefit others.” — Caroline Crepu, Caroline’s Bookshelf “A beautiful book to share with those who have a loved one going through a long term illness or to spark a discussion on the topic.” — Marilyn Panton, Storywraps "A great book to read to kids, especially if there is a fund raising venture for this group in the works.” — Carla Johnson-Hicks, educator "A heartwarming and eye-opening book for slightly older children demonstrating the fantastic opportunities that the Make A Wish foundation give to sick children. Highly recommended read and definitely worth five stars for such a great foundation.” — Paris Taylor, Bookworm News "Okay, I was tearing up at this book….Awesome.” — Ryan Frankln, Illinois State Library
