ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
From award-winning author Barbara O'Connor, a novel about Charlie who, with the help of the dog of her dreams, discovers the true meaning of family.
Charlie's family situation is complicated: her dad is in prison and her mom can't take care of her, so she has to move in with her aunt and uncle, Bertha and Gus, in Colby, a small town in North Carolina. This was definitely not part of her plan--and worse... it might stop her secret wish from coming true
That's why Charlie can't stop thinking about how to get back to Raleigh to be with her family. But everything changes when she meets Wishbone, a stray dog who steals her heart, and Howard, the only kid who talks to her at her new school. Little by little, Charlie begins to realize that maybe her biggest wish can come true in the most unexpected place.
