The Wishmakers is a new series by the author of The popular Janitors series. This book contains lots of adventure, and mystery. It also at times hard to follow. The main character, Ace , thinks he’s opening a jar of peanut butter only to discover a genie is in there. This genie ( Ridge” has a mission to carry out, and he needs to get Ace to agree to “help him” ) He of course gets as many wishes as he wants, not know that for every wish granted there is a consequence to be paid. So Ace has ro decide things like does he want his house to fill up with peanut butter sandwiches, or have his legs turn to pogo sticks. I think 3rd and 4th graders will really enjoy the silly humor.
