Wishes really can come true in this optimistic story about the power of imagination with verse by children's poet Robert Heidbreder.
"A child takes a flight of fancy when the family dog is transformed into a thinly disguised unicorn. The ensuing adventure takes the pair into a world filled with castles, monsters, dragons, and wizards. Exhausted, they fall asleep on the ground and awaken to find themselves home on the lawn. The youngster's imaginary romp is portrayed in clever, full-page pastel illustrations rendered in gouache . . .The sparse, rhyming text works well as a read-aloud." - School Library Journal
