Overview

Mags has a lot to wish for a nice house with a mama who isn t tired out from work; a normal little sister; a brother who doesn t mooch for food; and, once in a while, she d like some new clothes for school. When her sister Hannie finds a stuffed unicorn, Mags s wishes start to come true. She knows the unicorn can t really be magic, but she won t let anything ruin her newfound luck even if it means telling her own sister to believe something that can t possibly be true. With colorful regional language and clear psychological insight, Hesse s debut ranks with Betsy Byars s The Pinballs and Cynthia Voight s Homecoming in describing families surviving as best they can under economic privation. - Publishers Weekly Hesse captures the spirits of a stalwart young heroine and her family.
