"Is that the wish we grant her? Directions to easy street?" This is the dilemma that Alanna and Joe must confront. Having been given magical powers to grant struggling gambler Shelly a wish, it isn't obvious how to help her. Is money a cure, or merely a palliative? She's a stubborn girl, and like anyone she likes to take her own decisions.In this story, it turns out that a deeper kind of change is the best wish that anyone could grant. The moral lessons are simple and true, and would teach an important message to readers of any age. The two wish granters may even find solace at the end of their journey; although by the look of things, there are stories about them yet to be told.
