I liked how it introduced the characters at the start and I thought it was interesting that the character don’t really exist. It was so funny I liked this book

I enjoyed this book because it was very interesting. I enjoyed seeing what dreams they have. My favourite part is when Joe rides a train and doesn’t know how to drive it.

It is fiction because they can’t do as you please. I like Moon face a lot for My favourite character. This book interested me because I really like doing as please, but sometimes you go to get some responsibility to do some stuff. I would recommend to my friends because I think it will interest them a lot.

I liked when they wished for whatever they liked and it would come true - I would like to live there! My favourite wish was Frannie's because she wished to ride on an elephant!
