Description: Korbinian, the protagonist, acquires a wishing hat.  First, he wishes for an apple tree, Caroline, the antagonists, disapproves.  Next, he wishes for colorful socks and is suggested that he shoul dhave wished for money.  Korbinian wishes for more things like : a flying umbrella, a flute that teaches how to play, and his friends and family disapprove to every item.  Once they left his home, out of anger Korbinian turned the stairs upside down so he couldn't be put down again.  Korbinian, satisfied, throws his hat out of the window, so he may never be able to make another wish again.
