The Summer My Wishes Came True

When everything she wishes for starts coming true, Ayesha discovers what will really make her happy. A book about tween friendships, with a sprinkling of magic, from award-winning journalist and author Radhika Sanghani. Perfect for fans of Lottie Brooks and Dork Diaries.

Ayesha can't wait for summer camp; it's going to be the best two weeks ever with her best friend Nikki. But Nikki's changed over the summer and things don't feel the same between them. When Ayesha overhears Nikki telling their roommates she's immature, Ayesha is embarrassed and wishes her life could be different.

The next day Ayesha realises everything she wishes for is coming true. Lie-in in the morning? Tick! Pizza for lunch? Tick! Nikki to be her best friend? Tick! Suddenly Nikki's hanging out with her again, and then Ayesha wishes for Nikki to get a part in the camp's musical, and now she's playing the lead role.

But their friendship still isn't the same. Ayesha thinks she needs a part in the musical too, so she makes another wish, even if her actions have taken a role in the musical from someone else who would really love it. She's got everything she's ever wished for, but will her wishes really make her happy? This summer isn't turning out to be everything she hoped for...

The Summer My Wishes Came True is a journey of self-discovery and the realisation that what we wish for isn't always what we need.
