By Travis Ann Sherman VINE VOICE on February 18, 2011
Format: Hardcover
I was a little hesitant about the grabability of this book at first, maybe because of the quiet, well mannered tone of the children and the illustrations. Good picture books about fractions are rare on the ground, though, so I ordered The Wishing Club for my library and read it through carefully. It deals with wishing on a star, and that's always good. A lesson on the correct magic words to use is included. Obtaining a pig for a pet is good too. The Wishing Club delivers a lesson in fractions with a lot of fun and magic and a minimum of hoke. I'm happy to be able to add it to my library's math corner.

Our six year old (1st grader) loves this book. It is good for introducing fractions, but more importantly it is a fun read aloud book that brings out the giggles and holds his attention. We highly recommend this book!

Great story to see if the students can figure out if the children get a whole pig or just a part of one!

Four young children wish on a star one night. They seem to think that something must be wrong with the star because each kid only gets a fraction of the thing they wish for. They decide that if they all wished for the same thing that all together they might get a whole item! They wish for pig. Will their idea work?
